A supplementary account on the echinoids from the Korytnica Basin (Middle Miocene; Holy Cross Mountains, Central Poland)

Abstract

A new sifted material considerably supplements the knowledge of the Middle Miocene (Badanian) echinoids from the Korytnica Basin (Holy Cross Mountains, Central Poland). The occurrence of such genera as Psammechinus, Scutell (? Parascutell), Clypeaster, and Echinolampas is reported for the first time. Shortly discussed is the whole assemblage, which comprises 13 genera of seven orders, and thus is the richest among coeval assemblages occurring in the Miocene deposits of the Fore-Carpathian Depression.
