, etc.). Likewise, the facet of the ischial peduncle is also tilted towards the centre of the acetabulum as its posterior corner is set further away from the ilium than its anterior corner. The ischial peduncle greatly protrudes from the ilium posteriorly and in this way forms a bony barrier posteriorly to the acetabulum. Ventrally, the surface of the ischial peduncle is strongly concave and wedge-shaped like the pubic peduncle but with smoother corners. Comparatively, the ischial peduncle is dorsoventrally taller than the pubic peduncle but both display similar lengths anteroposteriorly. Both peduncles are physically separated by the acetabular perforation as in other teleosauroids (e.g.

, the posterior attachment site takes the shape of a droplet and is overall greater than the anterior one as it extends posteriorly almost until the tip of the postacetabular process. The area of the posterior attachment site expanding over the postacetabular process presumably received the winglet of the second sacral whereas the more rounded portion next to the anterior attachment site bore the main body of the second sacral rib. The anterior attachment site displays a rather bilobate silhouette with the ventral margin of the scar being more circular than the dorsal one. Each scar is delimited by a thin rim and forms a relatively shallow indentation similar to

The latter accounts for almost 2/3 of the total dorsal surface of the posterior peduncle and is slightly concave. Its silhouette is that of a rounded triangle with its anterior margin being concave and its lateral one being strongly convex up to the point of being almost hemispherical. The limit between the two sub-surfaces of the posterior peduncle is relatively straight. The medial articular facet of the posterior peduncle is overall triangular in shape. It is oriented medially rather than laterally and its surface is strongly pitted. The posterior peduncle of

, the mediolateral width of the constriction of the shaft corresponds to half of the mediolateral width of the pubic peduncle. From the base of the constriction up until the pubis peduncle, the medial and lateral margins of the shaft are concave but not symmetrical, so that the median of the pubic peduncle is shifted laterally compared to that of the shaft. The pubic peduncle is set on top of the shaft proximally. It displays an oval outline whereas its articular surface is curving, with its centre being concave and its medial corner being set more distally that the lateral corner.
