Medial to the narrow antorbital notch, a distinct maxillary tubercle is visible. The position the suture between the maxilla and the missing lacrimojugal complex, well visible in the ventral surface of the left side of the neurocranium, supports that this tip, apparently laterally located to the rostrum base, is actually the maxillary tubercle. Indeed, this suture is located well lateral to the lateral margin of the rostrum, leaving exposed ventrally a wide portion of the maxilla that anteriorly bears what we interpret as maxillary tubercle. The presence of a well-defined maxillary tubercle separated from the lateral margin of the rostrum by a distinct prominental notch is a feature shared by most hyperoodontines including
