). Head scales low, flat, with deeply crenulated margins around the crown. Transitional scales elongated with low base occurring as a narrow weak wall around the large, shallow pulp depression. Short medial crown area developed only anteriorly. Trunk scales with narrow and deeply furrowed, or with wide and shallow medial area. Wider lateral crown areas not developed in all trunk scales. Lateral spinelets (two to three) situated anteriorly, and may occur as flat widened to flat short areas. Base low, anteriorwardly more convex. Numerous openings of dentine canals situated on the surface of pulp depression of the head and transitional scales. Short pulp canal developed only in trunk scales. Dentine canals comparatively long, branching at several levels with widened proximal parts.
