Freshwater Miocene of Krbavsko Polje in Lika (Croatia)

Ostracods and, for the first time, freshwater molluscs and microflora remains from Krbavsko polje have been investigated. The marls observed in this karst polje were deposited in a lacustrine environment. The lake was surrounded with swamps, flood plains lowland and hillside. The climate of this are...

The marls observed in this karst polje were deposited in a lacustrine environment. The lake was surrounded with swamps, flood plains lowland and hillside. The climate of this area was subtropical. The fossil fauna of the region is similar to the freshwater fauna of the Middle Miocene deposits from Dalmatia. On the basis of this study, and contrary to some previous studies the analysed sediments from Krbavsko polje are Miocene in age.http://www.geologia-croatica.hr/ojs/index.php/GC/article/view/438Freshwater Miocene sedimentsOstracodsMolluscsMicrofloraKrbavsko poljeCroatia
