The stratigraphical nature of the fauna is similar to that of locality no. 5 of Bere-mend, and is thus transitionary between Csarnota no. 2 and VilMny no. 3. Here Dolomys is completely absent, from which one may infer that the age of the fauna is somewhat younger than that of the other two faunas. Besides the above-mentioned antilope finds (Tragospira), worthy of note is the occurrence of the eomyid Estramomys simplex Janossy in the Villdny mountains, an extinct Tertiary form described from...

This fauna is the most important of all the animal communities of Osztramos, as far as the taxonomy of the rodents of the Lower Pleistocene is concerned. Most remarkable is the occurrence of a surviving representative of the family Eomyidae, which had been thought to have become extinct in the Miocene. This species has been described from this rich locality (Estramomys simplex Janossy, 1969b). In view of recent findings in the Villany mountains and in the Ukraine, this form is likely to be attributed strati-graphical significance in the future.
