Diagnosis
Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
D. R. Prothero 1996 | Medium-sized camel (length of Ml-3 = 43-45 mm) with moderately hypsodont teeth and highly reduced premolars (P2-4/M1-3 ratio = 0.506—see Table 4). Distinguished from Poebrotherium, Paratylopus, and Gentilicamelus by its larger size, more hypsodont teeth, and more reduced premolars. Distinguished from Pseudolabis or Miotylopus by less hypsodont teeth and presence of mesostyle. Smaller than Oxydactylus, but otherwise quite similar. |
