Description. The remains belong to one adult individual.
Upper teeth. The left P4 (ZIN 34247–1, W= 9.8 mm) has a triangular contour, is broad, and shows two morphologically distinct portions, the trigon labially and the talon lingually ( Fig. 3D). In the trigon, the high paracone is oriented almost vertically. The metacone is not preserved (the reconstructed P4 length is approximately 13.6 mm). The parastyle is very well defined and pointed mesially to the paracone. The talon is broad (Ltal = 9.8 mm) covering more than two-thirds of the length of the trigonid. The occlusal outline of the left M1 (ZIN 34247–2, L=8.0 mm; W= 11.3 mm) is bean-shaped ( Fig. 3E). The paracone and the metacone are partially destroyed. The protocone is well developed. The talon is strongly projected distally. The central basin of the talon is concave. The hypocone is on the distolingual corner of the talon. The wear of both teeth is very advanced.
