Material. 27 isolated teeth. NHMW 2025/0177/0030 (9).
Description. The teeth represent female and immature or non-breeding male individuals, having a low transverse crest with also well-developed ornamentation. The teeth are relatively small and show a quadrangular shape in occlusal view with rounded lingual and labial edges. The root is divided into two root lobes by a deep central groove.
Discussion. Recent molecular genetic and morphological analyses of the phylogenetic relationships of Dasyatidae stingrays suggest that this current family is a paraphyletic taxon and should be split into several families ( Lim et al., 2015). Consequently, the specimens assigned to this taxon in this study will likely be assigned to a different taxon in the future. However, pending further research on fossil material, this study adopts a more conservative approach by retaining the provisional assignment to Dasyatis , which has been accepted by most authors to date.
Distribution. Lower Miocene: North Sea Basin ( Germany, Pollerspöck & Baeury 2014). Middle Miocene: Paratethys ( Poland, Hungary, Szabó & Kocsis 2016); Proto-Mediterranean, ( France, Cappetta 1987).
Distribution in Portugal. Middle Miocene: (Langhian–Serravallian) Lower Tagus Basin ( Fialho 2015). Middle Miocene: Algarve Basin, Lagos–Portimão Fm. ( Antunes et al. 1981). Upper Miocene: (Tortonian) Algarve Basin, Cacela Fm. (this paper); (Messinian) Alvalade Basin, Esbarrondadoiro Fm. ( Balbino & Antunes 2006).
