L. Chornogubsky et al. 2009 | Differs from all other polydolopids except Amphidolops in that the lower molars (and, to a lesser degree, also the upper ones) are considerably longer than wide, and more than four labial cusps are present in the m1. Differs from species of Amphidolops in having a large lingual cusp at the anterior end of the talonid in the m1; at least one, and up to three, vertical furrow(s) that bound the talonid cusps on the labial face of the crown; and two distinct labial rows of cusps in the M1 (i.e. the stylar row and the accessory cusp row; in Amphidolops both rows are almost fused in a single row). Differs from species of Eudolops in being smaller in size and in having a larger p3, with more distinct labial and lingual ribs; upper and lower molars have smaller and less distinct cusps; M1 has a greater difference in width between the anterior and the posterior lobes (the latter being wider); m3 is proportionally smaller. Differs from species of Polydolops in the absence of p2. Differs from Pseudolops in its smaller size; in that the P3 is proportionally shorter and has more marked labial ribs, and in having higher and flatter labial and lingual faces of P3. |
