Abstract

A description is given of Upper Cretaceous belemnites from West Greenland, and their affinities are discussed. The genera Actinocamax and Belemnoteuthis are represented. 2 new species viz. Actinocamax groenlandicus and Belemnoteuthis rosenktrantzi are established. A. groenlandicus is presumably from the Coniacian and is closely allied to Upper Turonian- ?Lower Senonian species. B . rosenktrantzi is most probably from the Senonian.
