Right premaxilla of Plesiadapis cookei (UM 87990) in A, dorsal (anterior to top); B, lateral (anterior to right); C, medial (anterior to left); and D, anterior views (dorsal to top) with corresponding labeled or enlarged photographs at bottom. Hatching indicates broken surfaces. Dashed lines encircle sutural surfaces.

Figure 3.3. Right maxillary teeth (P 3 -M 2 ) of Plesiadapis cookei (UM 87990) in stereophotographic occlusal view. Note absence of P 2 , lack of paraconule on P 3,4 , and dilambdodont morphology of molars sporting mesostyles. These features form a diagnostic suite for Plesiadapis cookei. Numbers and abbreviations: 10 – dorsal communication of M 3 alveolus with orbital cavity, 11 – infraorbital foramen; Mx – maxilla; Pal – palatine. 223
