Badenian ostracods from Požeška gora and Papuk Mts.

In our study, a rich and diverse fauna of ostracods is presented, separated from the marine Middle Miocene deposits from Požeška gora and Papuk Mts. The ostracod fauna was sampled from the Ljubin dol core, three outcrops situated at Banićevac, Lipovac and Crnka and nineteen different sampling locations from Mt. Požeška gora. Samples of Mt. Papuk belong to outcrops Gornji Vrhovci, Nježić and Radovanci, and thirty six different sampling locations. Detected marine ostracods belong to the suborder of Platycopa and Podocopa, more precisely, to the families Cytherellidae, Bairdiidae, Cyprididae, and Cytheridae. In addition to the presence of zonal markers for the Ostracod Biozone for the Badenian (Jiříček 1983 ; Jiříček & Říha 1990), we attempted to define the attribution of samples to a particular zone, out of the two Badenian ostracod zones recognized so far: the Early Badenian biozone NO–7 Acanthocythereis hystrix - Bythocypris lucida and the Middle Badenian biozone NO-8 Eocytheropteron inflatum – Olimfalunia spinulosa.
