Cranidial ontogenetic changes (cf. Pl. 20, figs 1, 3 and Pl. 21, fig. 1) include overall broadening of the cranidium; fining of the sculpture, particularly on the glabella and LO, and addition of smaller tubercles increasing density of its distribution; anterior expansion of the glabella; slight decrease in glabellar vaulting; inflation of lateral glabellar lobes; lengthening, deepening, and slight adaxial extension of lateral glabellar furrows; slight enlargement of L3 relative to L2; effacement of median LO node to blend in with other LO tubercles; and the genal spine shrinks to a rounded nub.

is known from only two specimens, but the high size disparity (Pl. 21, fig. 16 is a transitory pygidium with a single thoracic segment attached) demonstrates a number of ontogenetic changes. The pygidium becomes wider overall; the sculpture becomes finer but denser, with more small tubercles intercalated; the inter-ring and furrows between pleural ribs lengthen and shallow slightly; the median axial nodes shrink and blend in with the other tubercles; and the pleural spines splay out anterolaterally with increased space between them.
