Abstract: In the past only very few works dealt with fossil decapod crustaceans from Slovakia. The systematic research of this group has never been fully conducted there. This contribution provides a short review of all known Mesozoic and Cenozoic fossil decapod occurrences. So far, most of the taxa were described from the and strata.

Key words: Decapod crustaceans, Slovakia, Mesozoic, Eocene, Miocene.
