Abstract
The lower Turolian (MN11) assemblage of rodents collected from new temporal outcrop near Triblavina (Danube Basin, Western Slovakia) is described. Fossils were collected from at least 2.5 tons of sediment that was wet sieved on a set of stable sieves. The mesh size of the lower sieve was 0.5 mm and the residue was not treated with acids for the sake of preserving mollusk shells. Fossil remains were picked manually from residue under the stereo-microscope. More than 170 teeth of small mammals were recovered. The rodent assemblage consists of 87 identifiable teeth belonging to ten taxa: Apodemus lugdunensis, Kowalskia sp., Epimeriones austriacus, Eozapus intermedius, Spermophilinus sp., Myomimus dehmi, Vasseuromys pannonicus, Keramidomys ermannorum, Keramidomys sp. and Eomyops sp. Fauna of rodents from Triblavina is described in detail here and these data are associated with recent article [1].
