A több mint 50 fajt tartalmazó anyag a badeni Pannóniai- medence északi és nyugati részéből, a Börzsöny, a Bakony és a Mecsek hegységből származik. Bánd kora-badeni faunája különleges figyelemre tarthat igényt egy faj, a Janssenia echinulata (PUSCH) szokatlan gyakorisága miatt. Mecsekpölös - kén a Favartia suboblonga (D’ORBIGNY), míg Hidas térségében egy középső-badeni feltárás faunájában az Ocinebrina confluens (EICHWALD) faj jelenik meg más lelőhelyekhez képest tömeges előfordulásban. Néhány ritka species szélesebb ősföldrajzi elterjedése mellett nyolc faj: Bolinus brandaris torularius (LAMARCK), Dermomurex scalaroides (BLAINVILLE), Pterynotus pseuderinaceus (BOETTGER), Ocinebrina landaui KOVÁCS, Pteropurpura friedbergi (COSS MANN & PEYROT), Phyllocoma michelottii (BELLARDI), Coralliophila sacyi (COSSMANN & PEYROT), C. serraticincta BAŁUK, valamint egy tropho nine nemzetség, a Pterynopsis új magyarországi előfordulása dokumentálható a vizsgált anyag alapján. Egy új faj, Ocinebrina bertai n. sp. is bevezetésre kerül a bándi középső-miocén lelőhelyről. Tárgyszavak: miocén, badeni, Muricidae, Középső-Paratethys, Pannóniai-medence Abstract The aim of this paper is to contribute to a better understanding of the actual diversity of the Early – Middle Badenian (Langhian; middle Miocene) gastropods from the Central Paratethys. This will be attempted by presenting seven Muricidae assemblages including more than 50 species from the northern and western part of the Pannonian Basin System (Börzsöny, Bakony and Mecsek Mts, Hungary).

McLean, former Curator of Malacology at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County is provided. It is complemented with a full bibliography and list of 344 taxa named by him and co-authors (with type information and current status), as well as 40 patronyms. Biography James Hamilton McLean was born in Detroit, Michigan, on June 17, 1936. The McLean family moved to Dobbs Ferry, New York, on the Hudson River in 1940, a short train ride and subway ride away from the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH). His brother Hugh recalled that, “AMNH became the place of choice to go to whenever we could get someone to take us. Those visits opened our eyes to the variety and possibilities of what was out there, waiting for us to discover and collect.” From an early age James seemed destined to have a career at a museum (Figs 1–2).

Thirty species are recorded of which five are new:Paziella (Flexopteron) gallica nov. sp., Paziella (Flexopteron) gracilenta nov. sp., Attiliosa gallica nov. sp., Attiliosa pouweri nov. sp. and Ocinebrina houarti nov. sp. The muricid generic composition is moderately strongly thermophilic, with a considerable number of genera present that do not extend northwards to the latitude of NW France today, and more strongly thermophilic than the muricid fauna of the lower Pliocene Assemblage III of the same geographical area, suggesting some lowering of Sea Surface Temperatures (SSTs) between the late Miocene and early Pliocene.

  • Middle Miocene (Badenian) Gastropods from Korytnica, Poland; Part V Addenda Et Corrigenda Ad Prosobranchia
    Acta Geologica Polonica, Vol. 56 (2006), No. 2, pp. 177-220 Middle Miocene (Badenian) gastropods from Korytnica, Poland; Part V Addenda et Corrigenda ad Prosobranchia WAC¸AW BA¸UK Institute of Geology, University of Warsaw, Al. ˚wirki i Wigury 93; Pl-02-089 Warszawa, Poland ABSTRACT: BA¸UK, W. 2006. Middle Miocene (Badenian) gastropods from Korytnica, Poland; Part V, Addenda et Corrigenda ad Prosobranchia. Acta Geologica Polonica, 56 (2), 177-220. Warszawa. This report is the fifth part of the monograph of the rich assemblage of gastropods occurring in the so-called Pleurotoma Clays of Middle Miocene (Badenian) age, exposed in the environs of Korytnica in the Holy Cross Mountains, Central Poland. Besides 73 species, described earlier, the report contains descriptions of 52 species omitted from the earlier parts; of which, 50 were not recorded previously from Korytnica. Five species are established as new: Cocculina (Dallia) unica sp.nov., Turritella (Peyrotia) circumcisa sp.nov., Caecum korytnicense sp.nov., Morula valdemari sp.nov., and Ocinebrina recognita sp.nov. A new name, Megalomphalus palazzii nom.nov. is proposed for Narica depressa BOETTGER, 1907 [=Megalomphalus depressus (BOETTGER, 1907)], which is a homonym of Megalomphalus depressus (SEGUENZA, 1876). Key words: Prosobranch gastropods, Middle Miocene, Korytnica.
