TABLE 2. Measurement values of concavity in V. rambliensis sp. nov. of PF1 (12 specimens; 2 m1 inf. ant., 1 m1 inf. post., 4 m2 inf. ant., 4 m2 inf. post., 1 m1 sup. ant., 1 m1 sup. post., 4 m2 sup. ant. and 5 m2 sup. post. profiles) and comparison with V. autolensis from Autol 1 (1 specimen) and V. duplex from Harami 1 (1 specimen). For more detail see Freudenthal and Martín-Suárez (2007b). Abbreviations: S, surface of concavity profile; w, maximum width of the molar as seen in the profile; b, distance between x and y; h, maximum depth of the concavity; r, radius of the best-fitting circle.
