The preserved portion of the skull is broken into two fragments. One fragment consists of a partial snout and occluded mandible. The preserved lower jaw portion includes four complete incisor teeth and a fragmentary right canine. A well-preserved canine is present in the right maxilla. The left lower jaw is not preserved. The dorsal surface of the skull is poorly-preserved and most sutures are not visible, although the position of the narial openings can be discerned. The second fragment is a small piece of uncertain position in the skull.
