Type. Detached teeth ; British Museum. 
Teeth mostly broader than long, though sometimes of the reverse 
proportions ; crown comparatively flat ; the posterior border more 
or less strongly convex in the middle, and the anterior border straight, 
with gently rounded lateral angles, and with a slight tendency to 
median excavation. Anteriorly, the tooth is somewhat narrower 
than behind ; and the postero-lateral angles of the root are much 
produced backwards. The unabraded coronal surface is slightly 
rugose, and there is rarely any trace of a transverse suture ; when 
present, this is faintly marked and almost median. 
This diagnosis is founded upon the specimens in the collection, 
but it is not improbable that a small narrow portion of tooth was 
originally connected with the posterior margin of the examples thus 
described.

species ; Dpper Carboniferous Limestone, Richmond,
