. — The complete series of the lower cheek teeth consists of five (sic) teeth; there are four upper cheek teeth bearing four crests, the paracone crest usually separated from the protocone, sometimes fused with wear; crest of the metacone always separated. Skull very high, with a very characteristic wedge shape.Posterior area of the skull anteroposteriorly very short. Large infraorbital foramen. Strong upper incisor which reaches the top of the root of the M3. Lower incisor touching the anterior face of the condyle, anteriorly to this one.

The teeth are lightly worn, showing the outer groove and forming a crescent-shaped fossa, which disappears with advanced wear. The protocone and hypocone are connected to a small endoloph. The lingual sinus is poorly developed, slit-shaped when the tooth is slightly worn. The anteroloph extends from the protocone and joins the anterior face of the paracone. This crest, fused with the paracone, forms the anterior border of the tooth. The paracone and metacone are centred on the buccal margin of the tooth. Depending on the wear, these cusps tend to fuse, the metacone being more prominent than the paracone. It should be noted that there is a problem concerning the definition of the metacone which will be treated in the discussion.</paragraph>

It extends from the posterior face of the hypocone to the posterobuccal surface of the metacone. During wear, the posteroloph does not join the metacone in the M3; the latter cusp forming the posterobuccal border of the tooth.</paragraph>

The metaconid projects anteriorly forming the mesial margin of the tooth. The structures are poorly identifiable due to advanced wear. The structure of the p4 is similar to that of the molars. The central furrow is reduced to an islet of enamel and the posterior one is reduced to a small notch on the posterolingual border. The lower molars present three principal crests (metalophulid I, entolophid and posterolophid). The posterior part of the tooth is slightly narrower buccolingually than the anterior one, the posterolophid being shorter than the other two crests. This shortening is more marked in the m3s which are still erupting and are therefore lightly worn. The protoconid and the hypoconid are prominent and connected by a short ectolophid. The narrow buccal V-shaped sinusid is limited by these three structures. It is buccoanteriorly to posterolingually oriented. A short metalophulid I extends from the anterior face of the protoconid to the anterolingual side of the metaconid forming the anterior wall of the tooth. The hypoconid is connected to the prominent entoconid by a short crest: the entolophid. Due to the advanced degree of wear, the hypoconid, entolophid and entoconid are fused together forming the central crest. The posterolophid stretches from the posterior face of the hypoconid to the lingual border of the tooth.</paragraph>

The left zygomatic arch is massive, thickened (tall) in its middle part. The maximum height is reached at the junction of the zygomatic bone and the temporal bone. The frontal process of the zygomatic bone extends above the end of the zygomatic process of the temporal bone. The inferior part of the anterior end of the zygomatic arch extends well below the zygomatic process of the temporal bone. The height of the arch decreases backwards towards the temporal bone.

The radial shaft, which is more flattened in its proximal part, is rather thin and clearly widens at the distal epiphysis level, suggesting a reinforcement of the carpal area. On the ulnar side, two long crests run down and are separated by a long well-marked groove which broadens distally. These crests would give insertion to the

Despite its poor preservation the epiphysis appears triangular. A few carpal bones are preserved in the matrix, but are displaced and are not easily cleanable because of their fragility and will be part of another paper dealing with the hand of the species.

The triangular tibial plateau is lateromedially compressed. The lateral condyle is developed and strongly posterolaterally projecting. Due to the poor preservation, it is not possible to describe precisely the groove, which does not seem to be deep. Because of the thinness of the tibia, unusual among rodents, it was difficult to determine the different muscular insertions; this is why we add an explicative figure (

Part of the rib cage is preserved, partly crushed and does not permit a detailed description. The ribs seem to be thick. The cervical vertebrae are compact (but not fused as is sometimes the case in burrowing rodents) suggesting a shortened neck, the usual feature in fossorial mammals. The atlas is poorly preserved but one of the superior articular facets is preserved and deep. On the axis, the odontoid process is stout and slightly ventrally inclined.</paragraph>
