FIGURE 2. Agerinia roselli from Les Saleres. IPS-2543, left mandible fragment with P3 and P4 in occlusal (1 ), buccal (3), lingual (5), and mesial (7) views; enlarged images of mesial roots of the same specimen in occlusal (2 ), buccal (4), lingual (6), and mesial (8) views; white arrows indicate the position of the most mesial root; black arrows indicate the position of the root immediately mesial with respect to the P3. Scale bar represents 3 mm in both cases.
