Generic Characteristics. " The crowns of the upper true 

 molars are composed of a pair of external cusps similar to

 divided so as to form an intermediate anterior tubercle. All 

 the teeth preserved have a distinct basal ridge."

 and curved slightly forward. At the proximal end it is 

 broad and flattened axially ; below this it becomes expanded 

 fore and aft, but it thickens greatly at the distal end, just
