In posterior presacral vertebrae, the bases of the transverse processes originate approximately below the prezygapophyses and they project markedly anterolaterally. One incomplete sacral vertebra may belong to this taxon; however, it is regarded as belonging to an indeterminate anuran because it bears postzygapophyses (see below: Problematic taxa).

The distal part of the lateral border of the bone (crista lateralis not taken into account), close to the articular ball, forms a gentle curve that is slightly convex laterally; this part of the humerus is generally concave in anurans.
