There is a long, narrow longitudinal keel on the bottom of the axis, which is also seen in "Riojasuchus", "Saurosuchus", the aetosaur "Stagonolepis", and phytosaurs. The front border of the neural spine is uniquely high and vertical, while the rear border is concave like "Turfanosuchus" but unlike "Erpetosuchus". Similar to both, the articular process known as the postzygapophysis projects over the back of the centrum, but it is uniquely in the horizontal plane. The remaining cervicals have poorly-developed keels on their bottom surfaces, in contrast to "Erpetosuchus", "Nundasuchus", aetosaurs, "Saurosuchus", and "Riojasuchus". The sides of their centra have long depressions, like "Turfanosuchus", aetosaurs, "Batrachotomus", and "Ticinosuchus". In at least the fourth, sixth, and seventh cervicals, there are narrow, rounded "tables" at the base of the neural spines, like "Turfanosuchus" and "Euparkeria". There are circular depressions at the front of the neural spines, above the neural arches, a trait shared with "Turfanosuchus". The postzygapophyses are located at the same level as another set of processes, the prezygapophyses, like "Turfanosuchus", "Erpetosuchus", and "Ornithosuchus". The top margin of the postzygapophyses are convex like "Turfanosuchus". There are depressions below the postzygapophyses, which are not seen in any other archosaurs except for "Stagonosuchus" and "Batrachotomus", where they are deeper. Another set of processes known as the parapophyses extend backwards onto longitudinal ridges, like "Nundasuchus", "Batrachotomus", and "Postosuchus". There are sixteen dorsal vertebrae. Like "Parringtonia", "Nundasuchus", and other archosaurs, the articulating surfaces of their centra are flat. The keels on their bottom surfaces are again very weak, which is unlike "Riojasuchus", "Erpetosuchus", "Parringtonia", and "Nundasuchus", but like aetosaurs.
