Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| C. A. Sidor 2023 | Diagnosed by a unique combination of skull roof characters: anterior supraorbital boss parasagittally oriented and slightly sigmoidal in dorsal view with con- cave medial surface next to thickened posterior half of dorsal orbital margin, which likely represents a diffuse posterior supraorbital boss; thickening surrounding the parietal foramen narrows caudally (i.e. is somewhat tear- drop-shaped in dorsal view, because of posterolateral depressions on intertemporal skull roof); median frontal eminence relatively muted and diminishes anteriorly towards nasofrontal suture. |
