Aublysodon amplus (Marsh, 1892)

Marsh, O. C., 1892, Notes on Mesozoic vertebrate fossils, American Journal of Science 260, pp. 171-176 : 174

(2) Somewhat smaller teeth, but still large, one of which is represented in Plate III, figure 5 . Faint crenulations may be detected on the edges. The wear of the apex is on front and back, and also on the side, probably the outside. The posterior central ridge is narrow.

This tooth represents a distinct species which may be called Aublysodon amplus .
