The discovery of a well-preserved associated chimaeroid dentition in the Oxford Clay near Peterborough, England has permitted a revised description of the Jurassic chimaeroid Brachymylus altidens Woodward. It is assigned with Pachymylus and Callorhinchus to the family Callorhinchidae. The holotype of B. minor Woodward and lectotype of B. altidens Woodward are figured for the first time.
