Abstract: 

Albian in Northwestern Bulgaria is rich in ammonite fauna. The representatives of suborder Lytoceratina are comparatively scarce in the Albian ammonite associations. They derive from the marls of the Sumer Formation and from the glauconitic marls and sandstones of the Malo Peštene Formation. A total of 18 species and subspecies are described, which are distributed as follows: Ammonoceratites (Ammonoceratites) - 1: A. (Argonauticeras) – 1; Pictetia 2: Tetragonites – 1; Protetragonites  – 1; Eogaudryceras (Eogaudryceras) – 2; E. (Eotetragonites) 2; Anagaudriceras – 3; Kosmalella – 5. Most of the latter are established and described for the first time in Bulgarian paleontological literature. The specimens described are kept in the collection of the Paleontological Museum of Sofia University.

М. Иванов. Представители Lytoceratina Hyatt, 1889 альбского яруса Северо-Западной Болгарии. Альбский ярус в Северо-Западной Болгарии содержит богатые аммонитовые фауны. Представители подотряда Lytoceratina сравнительно редки в альбских аммонитовых ассоциациях. Они происходят из мергелей Сумерской свиты и глауконитовых мергелей и песчаников Малопещенской свиты. Описанные 18 видов и подвидов распределены следующим образом: Аmmonoceratites (Ammonoceratites) 1; A. (Argonauticeras) - 1; Pictetia - 2; Tetragonites - 1; Protetragonites - 1; Eogaudryceras (Eogaudryceras) - 2; E.(Eotetragonites) - 2; Anagaudryceras - 3; Kossmatella - 5. Большая часть из них установлена и описана впервые в болгарской палеонтологической литературе. Образцы сохраняются в коллекции Музея Палеонтологии Софийского университета.
