Abstract
Nine shark teeth were collected at Arnager in the south-western part of the island of Bornholm (Baltic Sea, Denmark). They all come from the basal conglomerate of the Coniacian (Upper Cretaceous) Arnager Limestone Formation and belong to the genus Ptychodus Agassiz, 1834. Three different species are dentified: P. altior, P. latissimus and P. mammillaris, which were hitherto unknown in Denmark.
