). The right frontal, which is broad and short, is partially preserved. The specimen shows fine remains of numerous tuberculations, suggesting that the surface of the frontal was originally decorated with very numerous distinct tubercles, and anteriorly with short ridges oriented parallel to the anterior margin. A short section of the supraorbital canal is located in the anterior part of the bone, near its lateral margin. The right parietal on the specimen is longer than it is wide, and no sculpture or remnants of sensory canals are preserved on the parietal. The large dermosphenotic lining the lateral margin of the frontal is the best-preserved bone of the skull roof. It extends posteriorly to the level of the frontal contact with the parietal, and abuts the dermopterotic posteriorly. The lateral margin is slightly concave, and flanks the orbit dorsally. The dermosphenotic forms a lateral process in its posterior part, then gradually narrows anteriorly, where it contacts the supraorbital anterior. On the dorsal surface of the bone, several ridges parallel to the lateral margin of the bone are preserved. Posterior to the dermosphenotic is a somewhat preserved rectangular dermopterotic, which flanks the parietal laterally. Neither the sculpture nor the sensory canals are preserved. The bones posterior to the parietal and dermopterotic are completely indistinct, except for a small rectangular bone that is probably part of a band of extrascapular bones. A fragment of the bone anteriorly to the frontal Štamberg interprets to be nasal.

). The antorbital is preserved anterior to the supraorbital anterior. A fragment of an anteroposteriorly elongated narrow jugal lines the dorsal margin of the suborbital portion of the maxilla ventral to the orbit. The posterior margin of the orbit is flanked by three small infraorbitals in the space between the posterior end of the jugal and the lateroventral margin of the dermosphenotic process. Across the orbit is an impression of a skeletal fragment appearing as a band of five small bones laid in a single line. It can be assumed that these are fragments of circumorbital bones from the left side of the skull (

). Nine small oval-shaped bones can be found on the specimen. Between the suborbital bones and the operculum is a fragment of a dorsoventrally extended dermohyal. Several suborbital bones from the left side of the skull are displaced anteriorly to the skull roof bones. The position and shape of the preoperculum is very indistinct. The maxilla is typically aeduellid, narrow anteriorly and progressively deeper posteriorly. The posterior portion of the maxilla is relatively low, and its depth is 3.1 times the total length of the maxilla. The anterior part of the maxilla has numerous well-developed tubular teeth, consisting of a tube and a small pointed tooth at the end of the tube. The same teeth are preserved on the mandible. The teeth on the upper and lower jaw are of the same size and closely spaced.

). The operculum is rounded in its dorsal part, markedly extended dorsoventrally, whereas the dorsal part of the operculum is angular and inclined anteriorly. There is an imperfectly preserved border between the operculum and suboperculum. Both bones bear numerous tuberculations, with their spike-like apices directed posteriorly and covering the entire surface of the operculum and suboperculum. One branchiostegal ray lies between the suboperculum and the lateral gular. The small tuberculations on the branchiostegal ray have the same shape as on the suboperculum and operculum. The lateral gular anterior to the branchiostegal ray is almost twice the area of the branchiostegal ray. The lateral half of the outer surface of the bone bears numerous long and short ridges parallel to the lateral margin of the bone. The medial margin of the lateral gular forms a fold where the convex part of the lateral margin of the median gular fits. The median gular is approximately rhombic in shape, antero-posteriorly elongated and much narrower than the lateral gular. In the medial part of the bone, the impression of the pit line of the gular is visible.

). Their size decreases posteriorly. The posterior margin of the scales is serrated. The serrated margin is particularly well developed in the scales on the anterior portion of the fish, and the number of serrations on the posterior margin of the scale decreases towards the posterior portion of the fish. The outer margin of the scales is not sculptured, except for incremental lines parallel to the posterior margin of the scales. Scales bearing the lateral sensory canal are preserved on the entire preserved body fragment. There are 8 scales in a vertical row anterior to the dorsal fin, dorsally to the lateral sensory line. Four large dorsal scutes are developed in front of the dorsal fin.
