Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| G. Storch and V.S. Zazhigin 1996 | Smallest Paranourosorex species. The hypolophid on m1-2 extends behind the entoconid lingually and is separated from the entoconid by a transverse groove. The ventral articular facet of the condyloid process is separated from the lower sigmoid notch by a vertical groove and it is placed more posteriorly than in in exspectatus and gigas. The internal face of the coronoid process shows a distinct limula and a well-delimited internal temporal fossa above the limula. The apex of the lower incisor is less upterned, the uppr articular facet is shorter transversely, the mandibular foramen is much smaller, and the dentition and lower jaw are more slender than in inexspectatus and gigas. |
