Holoclemensia sp.

Referred material.— SMP−SMU 61726, Lmx.

Description.— SMP−SMU 61726 ( AP: 2.06, ANW: 1.43, POW: 0.90; Fig. 7F View Fig ) is a complete but heavily fractured lower molar. It is referable to Holoclemensia in trigonid proportions—the trigonid is wide and mesiodistally compressed, the paraconid was much shorter than the metaconid (broken) and positioned somewhat buccally, and a distal metacristid is absent. However, the talonid is elongate and curled, in a manner similar to Kermackia . The cristid obliqua meets the trigonid more lingually than in specimens of H. texana , and the entoconid is relatively much larger (subequal to or larger than the hypoconid). This specimen is too poorly preserved to be of any other taxonomic use.

Stratigraphic and geographic range.—Butler Farm, upper Antlers Formation (Aptian–Albian), north−central Texas, USA.
