Spanish term or phrase: aplanamientos cuspidales
I can't seem to find a satisfactory translation for this term:

Es un grupo de gran significación territorial y se localiza en los Dptos. de Florida, norte de San Jose y suroeste de Lavalleja, es decir en toda la region del basamento cristalino, expresándose como interfluvios discontinuos de tamaños variables, convexos, asociados normalmente a los interfluvios con **aplanamientos cuspidales** con ojos de agua y esporádicamente pequeños afloramientos rocosos.

Thanks.
