Dzyuba 2012Rostrum is large, strongly elongated to long (PA approximately 820–1060% under DV > 10 mm), with all sides practically straight and gradu???? ally converging to the apex imparting it a vague sub???? conical shape. The ventral groove occupies one third to half of the rostrum length. The transverse section near the alveolus tip is rounded–subtrapezoid, later???? ally compressed (LL approximately 92–96%).
