. Bulletin of the British Museum (Natural History), Geology. 1mm. 05 mm Fig. 23. Humbertia operta gen. & sp. nov. a,b, two isolated left premaxillae, , in internal (above) and external view, c, head of isolated right maxilla, , in external (above) and internal view. All from Hajula, Lebanon. Explanation of abbreviations p. 296. The two supramaxillae (Sma, Smp, Figs. 20, 21) are essentially as in Gaudryella, except that the body of the posterior supramaxilla is shorter and deeper (cf. Figs. 5, 6, 9). As in Gaudryella, the supramaxillae were mobile, being displaced in fossils

As in Gaudryella, the supramaxillae were mobile, being displaced in fossils with the mouth open. (vi) Lower jaw. The mandible is similar in shape to that of Gaudryella, with the same short, steeply ascending oral border, and long, high coronoid process. The dentary (Den, Figs. 19-21, 22A, 24, 25) differs from that of Gaudryella in having a shallower symphysis, without serrations, and a slightly less steeply ascending oral border which bears six to eight small, recurved teeth close to the symphysis followed.
