文摘

Abstract-A rostral fragment of the dentary symphysis from the Cenomanian Melovatka-3 locality (Volgograd Region) is referred to the genus Lonchodectes based on the presence of elevated jaw borders, longitudinal groove on the dorsal surface of the dentary symphysis, and small alveoli of teeth, almost uniform in size and widely spaced. Lonchodectes sp. from Melovatka-3 is closely similar to L. platystomus from the Albian of England. This is the first record of the family Lonchodectidae in Russia and outside Great Britain.
