We describe a range of triconodont mammalian teeth from the Forest Marble (Middle Jurassic) of Kirtlington Quarry (Oxfordshire), Watton Cliff, and Swyre (both Dorset), and demonstrate the presence of a variety of morganucodontans, including Morganucodon tardus sp. n., Cherwellia leei gen. et sp. n., and Stylidens hookeri gen. et sp. n. “Amphilestidae” are represented by three species, Phascolotherium simpsoni sp. n., P. cf. bucklandi, and Amphilestes cf. A. broderipii, as well as by upper molars referable to Phascolotherium. Gobiconodontidae and Triconodontidae are represented by, respectively, Gobiconodon bathoniensis sp. n., and Eotriconodon sophron gen. et sp. n. Key words: “Amphilestids”, Bathonian, gobiconodontids, morganucodontids
