68500 shows the suture line of a specimen in the intermediate growth stage (at 14.4 mm dm). It possesses a Y-shaped external lobe with sinuous flanks. The external lobe has, measured at half depth, 0.64 of the external lobe depth and is 1.25 times wider than the ventrolateral saddle. The median saddle reaches a height of 0.42 of the external lobe depth. The ventrolateral saddle is tectiform and subacute (
