The abrupt expansion of some species characteristic of certain limited zoogeographical units can be observed. Bükk Phase: Only a few Pleistocene species remained, usually restricted to a small area. The fauna became undoubtedly modern. Kőhát Phase (nom. n.) — Biostratotype: Pothole of Kis-Kőhát 4th locality. — The lower limit of this new phase can be set with the final fade-out of Pleistocene species or with their retrocession to considerably limited "replie" areas. The phase can be characterized by species of contemporary fauna showing however a divergence of dominance from the following phase. Alföld Phase: As a result of Man's more and more intensive activity the phase can be characterized by the upset of the original faunal balance together with the increase of the number of "anthropophilous" species. Although the evaluation discussed above is based on factual information it is generalized here, naturally therefore in different areas it may contain different fauna! compositions. For example the material of Jankovich Cave, Petényi Cave and Rejtek I. Rock Shelter contain the following faunal phases —• with the record of characteristic faunal assemblages: Bajót Phase: Jankovich Cave — layers 5-4; Last occurence of Lagopus. Ochotona, Gricetulus, Dicrostonyx together with the presence of some "Pleistocene" relic species like Microtus nivalis, Microtus oeconomus and Microtus gregalis. The increasing of Microtus arvalis, Apodemus and Myodes is still subordinated. Petényi Cave — ?i(?) — Hy layers. Decrease of Lagopus, Sicista, Microtus nivalis, Microtus gregalis, Microtus oeconomus and Ochotona. Last occurrence of Ursus spelaeus and Rupicapra
