36 VIOLA T. DOBOSI - ISTVÁN VÖRÖS III. sin. ant. fr. (Fig. 5.6.) (its width: 82, that of the articular surface is 51 mm). Equus sp. II. - 1/1 M 1/ 2 dext. (senior) (Fig. 4.4). Kangifer tarandus — 16/4 left side cast antler beam (juv.); fragment of a tip of a tine; P 2~ 3 sin.; M 3 sin.; humerus sin. dist.; lunatum (C 5) dext.; caput femoris dext. fr. ; tibia sin. et dext. dist.; mt sin. prox.; mt sin. et dext. (inf.) dist.; 3 mt dist fr. Dimensions of teeth (in mms): P 2 P 3 M 3 length of crown 15 16 20,1 width of crown 14 15,5 19,3 -Lepus timid/is — 1/1: corpus mandibulae sin. fr. Length of teeth row (P 3—M 3): 19,5 mm Layers 5/a— 5 yielded game animals from a typical late Upper Paleolithic "impoverished" fauna. The sediments combined to form an earlier "lower layer" (= group of layers) — and consequently the associated animal bone remains can be divided in to two well-defined middle and lower levels as well. Middle level: 7 layer, light drab loess with yellow grains Ursus spelaeus 20/7 Alces alces 2/1 Crocotta spelaeus 5/2 Capra ibex 4/1 Leo spelaeus 1/1 Rupicapra rupicapra 3/2 Lynx lynx 1/1 Bison priscus 2/2 Coelodonta antiquitatis 5/2 Bos primigenius 2/1 Equus sp. I. 27/4 Summ.: 72/24 The species Vulpes vulpes must be excluded from the fauna list of the former "lower level/layer". Ursus spelaeus — 20/7: l 1­2 sin. (embryos); I 2­3 dext.; I,_ 2 sin.; 1, dext.; I 3 dext. (senil); С sup. corona; С inf.; 5 de; dp 4 sin.; M, dext.; 2M. 2 dext. (both molars are juveniles). Measurements of teeth (in mm): Mi M., M 2 M 3 length of crown 34,0 29" 32",6 breadth of crown 16,1 19 18,3 19,5 Cave bear in the Pilisszántó- Rock-Shelter II. is represented only by its teeth. Fifteen teeth are from the mandible and only 5 teeth come from the praemaxillae of individuals. Crocotta spelaeus — 5/2: I 2 sin.; I 3 dext.; С sup. sin. fr.; P, dext. fr.; Mj sin. fr. (length of crown 33, breadth of it 13,7 mms). Leo spelaeus — 1/1: os phalangis L ant. dist. Lynx lynx — 1/1 : С corona sin. sup. fr. The length of crown is 10 mms, its width is 7 mms.
