Spodnjemiocenske ribe in želva iz Žvarulj pri Mlinšah (Centralna Paratetida). (Slovenian)

Lower Miocene fishes and turtle from Žvarulje near Mlinše, Slovenia (Central Paratethys). (English)

The article discusses fossil finds of Miocene vertebrates from the vicinity of Žvarulje near Mlinše in Central Slovenia. The fossils were found in the Lower Miocene Govce formation. Most common in the assemblage were tooth coronas, usually without their root parts of cartilaginous fishes, belonging to the genera Notorynchus, Carcharias, Cosmopolitodus, Isurus, Carcharhinus and Sphyrna. Fragments of dental plates and caudal spines ascribed of the genera Myliobatis, Aetobatus and Rhinoptera were also relatively common. A few tooth crowns of bony fishes assigned of the genus Pagrus were also found along with two modest fragments of a turtle shell ascribed of the genus Trionyx. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

V prispevku so obravnavani ostanki miocenskih vretenčarjev iz okolice Žvarulj pri Mlinšah v osrednji Sloveniji. Ostanki vretenčarjev so najdeni v spodnjemiocenskih govških klastitih. Prevladujejo ostanki rib hrustančnic, največ je njihovih zobnih kron večinoma brez koreninskih delov rodov Notorynchus, Carcharias, Cosmopolitodus, Isurus, Carcharhinus in Sphyrna. Pogostni so posamezni sestavni elementi zobnih plošč in repnih trnov rodov Myliobatis, Aetobatus in Rhinoptera. Nekaj je zobnih kron kostnic rodu Pagrus in dva skromna fragmenta želvjega oklepa iz rodu Trionyx. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
