Original description: "On comparison with the corresponding portion of the jaw of D. sideropelicus, the following characteristic marks appear: The tooth line diverges much more strongly inwards from the maxillary border in the D. latibuccatus, leaving a wide groove between the two. This groove is separated by a narrow horizontal partition from a corresponding one on the superior face of the same element, and its surface is AL—""11^1^^*^ longitudinally roughened. The teeth are closely placed, and the series turns with the anterior extremity of the V^#;\#;>raC^jK-^jfi jaw, abruptly inwards. The transverse diameter of the )VmV Ky teeth lessens to just posterior to the point of curvature, so that their section is nearly round; at and anterior to the curve, the wide transverse diameter is resumed, the Fig. 2— Anterior half of right maxillary ill J 1 • 1 f -O :*U of D. latibuccatus.
