Early Miocene ostracods from the Sadovi section (Mt Požeška gora, Croatia)

Early Miocene ostracods from the Sadovi section (Mt Požeška gora, Croatia) The study of the Early Miocene (Late Ottnangian/Early Karpatian) ostracod fauna from the Sadovi section (Mt Požeška gora, Croatia) led to several results concerning Neogene paleobiogeography and paleoecology. Brackish deposits of Late Ottnangian and Early Karpatian age have been recognized for the first time in the North Croatian Basin. These deposits indicate the first marine ingression into the Early Miocene lake in this area. Twenty-nine ostracod species were determined, including the new taxaFabaeformiscandona slavonicanov. sp. andHerpetocypris sadoviinov. sp.
