The Pentamerus Range (Danish: Pentamerus Bjerge) is a mountain range in far northwestern Greenland. Administratively this range is part of Avannaata municipality. The area of the range is uninhabited.

This mountain chain was named after the Pentamerus fossils dating back to the Lower Silurian that have been found in it.
