The three incisors are forwardly protruding, spatulate and mesiodistally short, the i1 being the longest with a horizontal apex. Its buccal face is convex and its lingual face is concave with a longitudinal central ridge extending from the cervix to about
under the apex. The i2 is slightly shorter than the i1 and displays a similar shape except for its oblique apex higher mesially than distally. It also exhibits a central longitudinal ridge on its lingual face that extends from the cervix to about
under the apex. The i3 is the smallest incisor with a shorter and oval-shaped crown in buccal view. It is a smaller version of the i2 rather than a triangular tooth in lateral view. The buccal face is convex and the concave lingual face also displays a central ridge that ends on a very slight enamel swelling above the cervix. There is no diastema between the incisors (

The p3 and p4 on BM-04-09-30-1 exhibit a triangular crown, a convex buccal face and a concave lingual face, and a small metaconid on the lingual face of the p4 slightly distal to the main cuspid. The talonid part is weakly developed and there is no distinct paraconid, but a very slight mesiodistal enamel swelling at the end of the preprotocristid (

) are longitudinally cracked and their morphology is thus not known with accuracy. For example, it was noticed that there were no well-defined accessory cusps. The new material is thus described here in more detail. Three M3’s and a possible M1 are present in the new material. The M3 is narrower distally than mesially with the buccal cusps more mesially situated than the lingual ones. The paracone is the largest cusp and a small centroconule is present mesiobuccally to the metaconule (this cusp was not visible on TF 2907 due to the preservation of the molars). A very small paraconule occurs slightly mesial to the paracone and the protocone and is merged in the preparacrista, but tends to disappear with wear. A cingulum is present mesially and distally and is variably developed under the metaconule (strong on BM-06-08-04-2 and weak on BM-06-08-04-5 and BM-04-07-26-1a). The distal part on the M3 is represented by a small distostyle that is often connected to the distal end of the postmetacristule (
