In dorsal view head strongly V-shaped, sides straight and converging substantially from back of head to just behind anterior limit of mouth (up to level of TPs), in front of this parallel sided rostrum ends in narrowly rounded snout tip. In ventral view lower jaw and upper lip more broadly rounded than snout, upper jaws visible from CMs forwards. In lateral view upper lip slightly concave (apex closer to eye than TP), lower lip slightly downturned. Snout very prominent in lateral view, projection anterior to mouth approximately two thirds as long as upper lip.</paragraph>

TAs oval, centres slightly below imaginary lines between nares and CMs; slightly closer to imaginary lines between eyes and nares than to underside of snout; distinctly closer to nares than to lip. In lateral view, CMs slightly closer to bottom than top of head. Nares subcircular, approximately equidistant in lateral view from top, bottom and tip of snout; not visible in dorsal or ventral views. TPs visible in dorsal and ventral views, TAs not visible dorsally. TPs approximately equidistant between snout tip and anterior of mouth.</paragraph>

All specimens are in the BMNH collection. AG_vent = incomplete AGs interrupted by vent and disc; AG_antvent = incomplete AGs immediately anterior to vent and disc; AG_incomp = incomplete AGs in vicinity of vent and disc; LT = tip of lower jaw; MC = midbody circumference; PAG_SAG = PAGs anterior to first SAG; PAG_SAGd = PAGs anterior to first dorsally complete SAG; PAG_SAGv = PAGs anterior to first ventrally complete SAG; TL = Total length; WH = maximal width of head; WM = width at midbody. See Materials and Methods for other abbreviations. * indicates holotype; all other individuals are paratypes. Tooth counts for BMNH 2005.1820 and 1821 (given in left, right order for lower jaw rows) are from x-ray CT reconstructions.

We do not think that the features in BMNH 2005.1821 are genuine spiracles because when gently probed they do not seem to pass through to communicate with the buccal cavity, and they are much narrower than unambiguous spiracles observed in other caecilians. We suggest that these features in BMNH 2005.1821 are instead developmental anomalies, perhaps incompletely ‘healed’ gill scars.
