in having teeth that have a bicuspid apex and a mesially recurved labial profile. The base of the distal shelf is concave in labial view, halfway towards the apex becoming convex to the apex of the tooth. The mesial tooth shelf is concave in labial view, and the apical edge of the tooth reaches an angle just greater than 90°. The labiolingually-broadened apex of the tooth possesses two cusps, one on the labial side, and one on the lingual side. These cusps are joined by a narrow ridge that forms a saddle between the cusps in mesiodistal view.

). The mesial and distal shelves are concave basally, with maximum concavity at the labiolingual midline of the teeth forming a slight basin. The presence of these basins on the mesial and distal sides of the apex creates a constriction of the apical ridge at the labiolingual midline of the teeth, and the ridge expands to its widest at the cusps on either side of the apex. The apex of the posterior tooth exhibits a lemniscate wear facet spreading across both cusps and the saddle between them. The apex of the anterior tooth has slight wear facets on the tips of both cusps, but no wear on the saddle connecting them. These wear facets cut through a thin layer of enamel exposing dentine below.
