Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
A. Cau et al. 2017Autapomorphies are marked by asterisks; differential diagnosis can be found in Supplementary Information. Platyrostral premaxilla that forms 32% of snout length* and bears 11 teeth*; external naris posterior to the premaxillary oral margin; rod-like jugal with an ascending process excluded from the orbital margin that forms only 10% of the postorbital bar*; rod-like ventral ramus of the postorbital; 22 presacral vertebrae; neck forms 50% of snout–sacrum length*; absence of epipophyses*; ridge-like cervical neural spines restricted to the 2nd–5th vertebrae*; postzygapophyses on cervicals 2–5 are fused medially and form single lobate processes*; pleurocoels restricted to cervicals 7–9; tuber-like neural spines in tail are restricted to the 1st–3rd vertebrae*; proximal-most chevrons large and pentagonal*; transition point in 7th–8th caudals; 3rd finger longer than 2nd; elongate pedal phalanx III-1 is 47% of the length of metatarsal III*.
