1 tooth (MÁFI, V. 14904). Description: Mj - The peak of the anteroconid is undivided and, concerning the axis of the tooth, is in an asymmetrical position. The metaconid is directly connected to the lingual anterolophid, and thus much more proximal than the paraconid. This latter is connected to the labial anteroconid and to the anterolophulid. The long mesolophid is located nearer to the entoconid than to the paraconid. Opposite to the mesolophid there is a short but well developed ectomesolophid, or there is a labial cingulum come in the same direction, respectively (ectostylid). While the hypolophulid and the entoconid constitute a uniform arch in the proximal direction, the hypoconid-posterolophid ridge-arch, is of distal direction. The posterolophid is sometimes double. M2 - On the front part of the teeth of the elongated square shape, there is a remarkable cingulum, from which ridges lead into two directions. The longer ridge reaches the metaconid, while the shorter one the protoconid. The mesolophid is long and is of distal and diagonal direction does not reach the margin. The posterior parts of Mg and M^ are structurally similar. M3 - The proto- and metaconid are of the same character as in case of M9. The mesolophid is long and is in contact with the lingual cingulum. The hypoconid-entoconid ridge is thin and is parallel with the mesolophid. The hypoconid and posterolophid constitute one closing unit. M* - The anterocone is undivided or bifid. Between the lingual anteroloph and the protocone there is a small cone (protostyle) that reaches beyond the tooth margin. The genus is characterized by the different direction of the tooth elements, i. e. the long, labial epiphysis, the ridge-like paracone, and the fact that the metaloph- metacone is perpendicular to the tooth axis. The elongated anterolophule-protocone, and the entoloph-hypocone, respectively, are inclined at an angle of 30 degrees as compared to the tooth axis. M - Its basic structure, except for the anterior section, is morphologically completely similar to M

3 - On the labial side there are five ridges, and on the lingual side there are two cusps with a sinus between them. It means that all the labial elements are of ridge-like character and reach the tooth margin where they constitute a cingulum.
