Abstract: Proboscideans from the area of Varna (NE Bulgaria) are discussed, with emphasis on two finds from Galata: an elephantoid molar mistakenly identified as Tetralophodon longirostris in earlier Bulgarian literature but actually belonging to an amebelodontid, and a previously unpublished premolar of Deinotherium giganteum. The proboscideans from the region of Varna are a rare example of pre-Turolian vertebrates from Bulgaria and might indicate middle Miocene fossiliferous outcrops in the area.
