Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
A. Badiola et al. 2011A new “plagiaulacidan” multituberculate described on the basis of the P1/3s, characterized by having a rectangular crown in occlusal view, with labial and distal bulges, and four cusps not arranged in clear rows (2B:2L). Small B1 displaced towards the mesiolabial corner of the crown and a thicker B2 confined to the longitudinal midpoint of the labial margin, between its lingual counterparts L1 and L2. Rounded mesial margin, with isolated small cuspules present on it and/or a short, transverse ridge encircling it, and a narrower distal margin, with a talonid-like “heel” structure, quite elongated distally, with or without cuspules. Cusps covered by few faint enamel radiating ridges.
