نبذة مختصرة : New data on the ammonite genusPseudokossmaticerasSpath, 1922 have been obtained from severaluppermost Campanian–lower Maastrichtian strata of the Fore-Balkan Mountains (Bulgaria). A reviewof the earlier Bulgarian records of the genus is also presented. The following species are here described andillustrated:Pseudokossmaticeras brandti(Redtenbacher, 1873),P.galicianum(Favre, 1869),P.muratoviMichailov, 1951 andP.tercense(Seunes, 1892). Our newly obtained ammonite records were constrainedby the inoceramid zonation that has recently been proposed for successions of the Fore-Balkan area. Hence,the Bulgarian data are of importance for correlation with other occurrences ofPseudokossmaticerasacrossEurope.
