Molluscs in Eemian-Vistulian deposits of the Kolodiiv section, Ukraine (East Carpathian Foreland) and their palaeoecological interpretation
A profile of loess several metres thick with palaeosoils, underlain by calcareous gyttja, outcrops in Kolodiiv, Ukraine. Rich and diverse assemblages of molluscs have been found in these deposits. Three types of mollusc communities can be distinguished. The oldest is dominated by freshwater taxa and...
