It differs from QMF 2316 specimen 'A' and the remaining dorsal vertebral series by having a more acuminate caudal margin of the pleurocoel; a rounded latero-ventral profile to the centrum; a more elliptical caudal articular face (dorso-ventrally compressed) and a more cranially oriented and rounded ventral origin of the caudal centrodiapophyseal lamina.
