Diagnosis
Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
D. Pagnac 2005 | Differs from P. singularis and P. taylori in its extremely small size, relatively large orbits, a narrowed ros- trum, very weakly developed lambdoidal and sagital crests, and inflation of the anterior frontals and lateral portions of the rostrum. Differs from P. tenuis in all the above characteristics as well as the consistent loss of the P1. |
