Marine basins that existed in present-day Ukraine during the Eocene harboured various groups of cartilaginous and bony fishes, reptiles, aquatic birds, and marine mammals. Fish remains from Paleogene deposits of Kyiv and its vicinities were first collected and described by O.S. Rogovich in the mid-19th century. Here we have carried out a re-examination of chondrichthyan fossils from Rogovich's collection and evaluated several later records, all of which were recovered from middle Eocene deposits
