PU no. 20916, Unworn or little worn upper molars (Fig. 17A,B; Hoffstetter and Lavocat, 1970: Fig.; Lavocat, 1976: PI. 4, Fig. 1) are approximately as long as wide at the occlusal surface and are tetralophate, sometimes with a minute projection from the anterior slope of the posteroloph of M^~^. As in P, the anteroloph is usually separated from the combined protoloph and mure by a deep hypoflexus, but, in contrast to P*, the labial notch, the para- flexus, between the two crests is very shallow (Figs. 17B, M^; 17G, M^ or M^ 18A,C, M^). The hypoflexus becomes pro- gressively more extensive, vertically, in the posterior part of the molar series. On M' it extends up for approximately half the height of the crown, on M^ rather more, and on M^ it comes close to the base of the enamel (PU no. 20947, Fig. 18A, is exceptional in having an exten- sive hypoflexus on M^). The protoloph sweeps lingually and posteriorly to the hypocone, which is also connected from the beginning of wear with the postero- loph. On the anterior face of the latter crest, a small projecting crestlet is pres- ent on M^~^. The metaloph does not meet the protoloph. The mesoflexus has the deepest labial notch, and the metaflexal.
