If no rank is listed, the taxon is considered an unranked clade in modern classifications. Ranks may be repeated or presented in the wrong order because authors working on different parts of the classification may disagree about how to rank taxa.

Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
Z. Kielan-Jaworowska and J. H. Hurum 1997The smallest member of the Djadochtatheriidae nov. (skull length
25-32 mm), most similar to Djadochtatherium, with which it shares an arcuate (rather than trapezoidal as in Catopsbaatar) p4. The p4 in Kryptobaatar is relatively longer than in Djadochtatheriurn and has eight serrations (number unknown in Djadochtatheriurn). Differs from Catopsbaatar in having relatively smaller facial surface of the lacrimal; differs from Djadochtatherium and Catopsbaatar in having a shorter postorbital process. Shares with all MLCM except Tombaatar the alveolus for I3 formed by premaxilla, rather than by both premaxilla and maxilla (autapomorphy of Tombaatar). Differs from Catopsbaatar and Tombaatar in having four upper premolars. Differs from Catopsbaatar in having an inner row of cusps in M1 extending for less than a half, or a half of the tooth length, rather than a long row; shares short inner row of cusps in M1 with Tombaatar and the North American Paracimexomys (LiUegraven 1969; Archibald 1982). Differs from Chulsanbaatar and Sloanbaatar in having cusps on the inner ridge in MI, rather than a smooth ridge. Differs from Tombaatar in having M1 cusp formula 4-5:4:3-5 rather than 5:5:2. Differs from Djadochtatherium and Catopsbaatar in having a shorter snout (but longer than in non-djadochtatheriid djadochtatherians), a relatively less robust lower incisor, and less prominent masseteric and parietal crests.
