		Description
Original description of Woodward, 1889 [2593]
Type. Detached tooth; British Museum. An imperfectly known species, founded upon the small tooth, shown, of thrice the natural size, in PI. XIII. fig. 10. The dental coronal contour is low and gently rounded, marked by a longitudinal median wrinkle; the laterally directed wrinkles are short, stout, and marginal, but few extending to the middle line.
Form. & Loc. Wealden; Isle of Wight.
P. 5275, P. 5275 a. Type specimen and a more elongated abraded tooth; Brixton
