Abstract
Fossil cephalopod jaws belong to rather rare fossils in the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin (BCB). The BCB represents Central European sedimentary space linking the Peri-Tethyan Shelf with the Boreal Realm (Wiese et al., 2004).
Cephalopod jaws have only occasionally been studied or mentioned in the past (especially in several monographs of Frič; Fritsch and Shlonbach, 1872; Fritsch 1910), more recently by Košťák et al. (2010). The revision of older collections and newly discovered cephalopod jaws enabled a new inside to taphonomy, taxonomy, and stratigraphy.
