suggest that it must have been capable of a strong bite, such as its robust and short snout that seems to be further reinforced by its brace-like premaxillae and the slot-like facet on the prefrontal so that the maxilla is supported both medially and laterally. A similar slot-like facet is observed between the postorbital and jugal, with the bone interdigitating along their meeting edge rather than the simpler overlapping facets seen in later clevosaurs.
