Middle Miocene (Badenian) delphinid and phocoenid remains from the Fore-Carpathian Depression in southern Poland
A small assemblage of remains of the toothed whales (Mammalia: order Cetacea, suborder Odontoceti) from the Middle Miocene (Badenian) deposits of the Fore-Carpathian Depression in Poland is analyzed. Their typical occurrence site within the Pińczów Limestones on the southern slopes of the Holy Cross...
