| 11. | A weak cingulum is present on the labial side of the tooth between the protoconid and hypoconid.
|
| 12. | The protoconid has a V shape, with one arm reaching towards the metaconid and the other towards the paraconid.
|
| 13. | The cristid obliqua, a crest, descends from the hypoconid to a point on the lingual side of the protoconid.
|
| 14. | At the front of the m2, crests known as the anterolophid and anterolabial cingulum are present before the protoconid and the metaconid.
|
| 15. | There is a distinct ridge ( anterolabial cingulum ) at the outer front ( anterolabial ) edge of the molar, before the protoconid.
|
| 16. | The three cusps form a right angle with each other at the protoconid, so that the trigonid is described as " open ".
|
| 17. | The metaconid is stronger than the protoconid in the molars, but it is not clear whether this is the case in the p4.
|
| 18. | The second molar is about square and shows the four main cusps commonly present in rodents : the protoconid, metaconid, hypoconid, and entoconid.
|
| 19. | The paraconid is distinct from the paracristid, the crest that connects it to the protoconid, and is located more lingually than in " Afrotarsius ".
|
| 20. | On the second lower molar, the protoconid cusp is notably taller than the hypoconid; these cusps are about as high in " T . goodmani ".
