Description
Original diagnosis after Ginter, Duffin, Dean & Korn, 2014 [21047]: Species of Thrinacodus whose teeth display the following combination of features: there are three cusps in the tooth-crown, either equal to each other or the distal cusp may be slightly larger than the other two. The median cusp is offset from its normal position and displaced lingually. The basal/ labial part of the crown below the median cusp forms a bulge. In this bulge, there occurs a distinct basal canal opening. The angle between the mesial and median cusps is slightly smaller than the angle between the latter and the distal cusp.
