accounts

>I wonder if anyone would be so kind as to offer some translations of
eucynodont generic names.  The ones I'm presently stuck with are:

>#  Trirachodon Seeley, 1895
Three spine tooth

>#  Lumkuia Hopson & Kitching, 2001
(?? Sounds like a locale)

>#  Scalenodon Crompton, 1955
Uneven Tooth

>#  Probainognathus Romer, 1970
Advanced (in years) Jaw

>#  Plinthogomphodon Sues, Olsen & Carter, 1999
(a stretch here) 
brick peg tooth
