The Rateș fossil site is located on the left bank of the Bârlad River, about 1 km downstream from the city of Tecuci (Galați County). The paleontological material analyzed in this paper is housed in the Museum of Paleontological Collection from the “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iași. This material consists of some dental and postcranial material belonging to Bovidae, Cervidae and Equidae. The paleontological material belonging to Equidae mainly consist of upper and lower teeth, and some postcranial bones like some first phalanges and metacarpals. Here we report two species identified from this site: Equus ferus and Equus hydruntinus. The lack of stratigraphical information for the studied specimens from Rateș makes it very difficult to assess the exact age of all the fossil material stored in the Museum of Paleontological Collection from Iași. In spite of this drawback, based on the general stratigraphic range of Eurasian equide taxa, the two above-mentioned species can be assigned to the Late Pleistocene.This work was supported by a grant of the Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitization, CNCS - UEFISCDI, project number PN-III-P1-1.1-TE-2021-0664, within PNCDI III.
