3. Results
- (1)
- The cusp is transversely narrower and, especially, more narrowly based.
- (2)
- The cusp exhibits a sigmoid profile (which is only incipient in C. macloti) and a distinct coronal twist.
- (3)
- The labial crown face is weakly convex transversely (rather than almost flat as in C. macloti).
- (4)
- In labial/lingual view, the cusp of the lateral teeth is characteristically “hook-shaped”, with the crown apex bending distinctly toward the commissure. This is due to the mesial and distal cutting edges of the cusp becoming progressively more convex and concave, respectively.
- (5)
- The cusp is labiolingually thick at the base and semicylindrical, whereas the distal and mesial heels are remarkably thinner. In apical view, the cusp is clearly divided from the distal heel by means of an abrupt variation of the labiolingual thickness of the crown. In C. macloti, the cusp is proportionally thinner at the base and not semicylindrical, and the thickness of the crown decreases regularly towards its distobasal end.
- (1)
- The mesial and distal cutting edges of the cusp are completely smooth (rather than being finely serrated to approximately their mid-points);
- (2)
- The distal heel bears one to five, coarse, angularly lobate serrae that become more prominent toward the cusp (rather than finer, more abundant serrations).
