Síntesis y bioestratigrafía de los carnívoros pliocenos de las cuencas centrales españolas

Abstract

A revision of the Pliocene carnivores from the Spanish Central Basins is presented in this paper. Through the study of data from Six different localities, we can establish the following characteristics: mustelid scarcity, temporal persistence of species and presence of sorne authochthonous evolutive trends. In conclusion, a similar type of carnivore fauna is present through the Pliocene, in contrast with the ungulate fauna/ changes
