Abstract | Isolated teeth, collected from strata assigned to the Brussel Sand Formation (Lutetian, Eocene) at the Imbrechts sand pit (Nederokkerzeel, Vlaams-Brabant, Belgium), form the basis for erecting a new species of scyliorhinid shark, Premontreia (Premontreia) lutetiensis. Affinities and heterodonty are discussed. |
