Amphibians and small reptiles from the Berriasian Rabekke formation on Bornholm, Denmark

Summary, in English

A diverse microvertebrate assemblage has been extracted from a limnic lowermost Cretaceous (Berriasian) stratum on the island of Bornholm, Denmark. The assemblage includes numerous remains of a wide variety of vertebrate groups including fishes, amphibians, reptiles and mammals. Herein, we describe the amphibian and reptilian (excluding Archosauria and Chelonia) part of the assemblage including indeterminate salamanders, frogs and lizards. The former findings are of particular interest as they represent the first occurrence of Mesozoic amphibians in Denmark.
