dc.description.abstract | "The holotype of the species Domninoides mimicus is based on one tooth. Described in the present report is material containing a practically complete dentition and many postcranial elements which definitely belong with the teeth. This species is closely related to Domninoides valentinensis described by Reed (1962), but some of the antemolars in valentinensis are misidentified. The tooth formula for valentinensis should be ?/3? ?/1 ?/3 ?/3 and for mimicus is 2/2 1/- 4/3 3/3. Development of the cingula on the upper and lower molars in mimicus is conspicuous. Because of similar features in postcranial bones, the Clarendonian mole may be as fossorial as Scalopus, probably the most fossorial extant North American mole"--P. [1]. | en_US |
