 Much of this acceptance has been based on the erroneous assumption that the canines are grooved instead of ridged; grooved canines in "Euchambersia" would parallel the fangs of various venomous snakes as well as the venom-delivering incisors of the living solenodons.This interpretation, which has consistently appeared in literature published after 1986, was determined by Julien Benoit to be the result of the propagation of Broom's overly reconstructed diagram of the skull, without the context of the actual specimens.This line of evidence has been raised to support the necessity of a re-evaluation the hypothesis of a venomous bite in "Euchambersia".
