DESCRIPTION
In the upper molars, the extra ridges between the anteroloph and protoloph are long. The anterior

extra ridges are connected to the middle part of the anterior centroloph. Th e main ridges are merged in the protocone. In this, the FT 3/10 form differs from
Myoglis ucrainicus
Nesin & Kowalski, 1997
(
Nesin & Kowalski 1997
) in which the main ridges of M1-2 are frequently not merged in the protocone region.
COMMENTS The morphology of these teeth is similar to that of the material described by Baudelot (1965),
Engesser (1972)
and Nemetshek & Mörs (2003) as
Myoglis meini
. This species is already known in three other Felsőtárkány localities, i.e. FT 3/2, FF 2/3 and FF 2/7, as described by
Hír (2003
,
2006
). The material from the borehole Lövölde Square,
Budapest
, described by
Kretzoi (1943)
as “
Pentaglis földvárii
” should be included in this species.
