Needs work.
editThis could be a very useful list, but now vague words like "a" and the absence of pictures make it very difficult to use accurately with assurance. Kdammers (talk) 05:08, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
- Agreed. Another potential pitfall is that it may not in fact be applicable to all mammals: the only source cited in this whole list regards nomenclature of Cricetid rodents, or more specifically, "the primitive topography of the enamelled surface of molar teeth of the Cricetidae is described as expressed in the fossil Cricetodontinae." So until the source is reviewed and compared to other, more general sources this might actually be no more than a "Glossary of fossil Cricetid molar topography". --Animalparty-- (talk) 01:05, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
These words are used throughout, within the definitions, but not defined themselves. 2A00:23C5:FE0B:700:116A:91D6:87CB:9845 (talk) 13:24, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
- flexus and flexid are open valleys in the oclussal surface of an hypsodont molar teeth.
- Most of this names are based in Osborn (1907). Evolution of mammalian molar teeth to and from the triangular type including collected and revised researches trituberculy and new sections on the forms and homologies of the molar teeth in the different orders of mammals. Not sure why Riggs is cited. --Lmalena (talk) 20:00, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
