F56EA96AFFA3FFDCB354C6712993F850.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis A species of Strophodus that is characterized by the following unique combination of dental characters: Presence of a well-developed, heterodont crushing-type dentition; teeth of first lateral file short mesio-distally and slightly domed in labio-lingual view, with a nearly triangular occlusal outline; tooth crowns of first lateral teeth without transverse occlusal crest, but covered with a finely reticulate pattern; teeth of the second lateral file wide mesio-distally and bulbous without a dome in labio-lingual view, displaying a subrectangular occlusal outline with a slightly concave labial and a gently convex lingual edge; tooth crowns of second lateral teeth without transverse occlusal crest and covered with a finely reticulate pattern that turns into labio-lingually aligned bands along the lingual part of the crown; teeth of first posterior file shorter mesio-distally than labio-lingually long and elliptical in occlusal outline; tooth crowns of first posterior teeth slightly elevated and ornamented with a finely reticulate pattern; tooth crowns of second posterior teeth small and oval in occlusal outline with their long axes oriented obliquely, exhibiting a finely reticulate ornamentation pattern; tooth roots of second posterior teeth parallelogram-shaped in occlusal outline and protrude distally and slightly labio-lingually below the crown, meeting each other in an efficient interlocking manner.	en	Stumpf, Sebastian, Kettler, Christoph, Kindlimann, René, Cuny, Gilles, Kriwet, JÜrgen (2023): The oldest Gondwanan record of the extinct durophagous hybodontiform chondrichthyan, StrophoDUS from the Bajocian of Morocco.

F56EA96AFFA3FFDCB354C6712993F850.taxon	description	Description Te holotype and only specimen of Strophodus atlasensis sp. nov., PIMUZ A / I 5181, is represented by an incomplete articulated dentition that contains a total of 21 crushing-type teeth, which are closely arranged in four well-defined tooth files, including two lateral and two posterior files (Fig. 2). Te dentition, which exhibits a high degree of heterodonty, is here tentatively separated into comprising both functional and replacement teeth based on the presence or absence of dental wear patterns (see below). Te dentition is gently convex along its labio-lingual axis (Fig. 2 B, C, F, G) and slightly twisted (Fig. 2 D, H). Te tooth roots are still embedded in rock matrix or are just partially exposed. Whether the dentition belongs to the upper or lower jaw cannot be determined due to its incomplete preservation.	en	Stumpf, Sebastian, Kettler, Christoph, Kindlimann, René, Cuny, Gilles, Kriwet, JÜrgen (2023): The oldest Gondwanan record of the extinct durophagous hybodontiform chondrichthyan, StrophoDUS from the Bajocian of Morocco.
