angustilobum, Cornus. All these elements occur both in the Early Oligocène and Lower Miocene and cannot prove differences in the age of these sites. On the other hand, the Egerian floras from the environment of Linz (KOVAR 1982) and Krumvir (KNOBLOCH 1975) do include new elements that allow one to consider both localities younger than EW. It is first of all Cunninghamia and Fagus (a cupule at Krumvir, own observation) that link these floras with those of Germany (Witznitz and Thierbach Complexes - see KVACEK, WALTHER & BÜZEK 1989). These assemblages include a higher representa­tion of Tetraclinis and Trigonobalanopsis, Comptonia acutiloba instead of V. dryandroi­des together with some more Miocene elements (Buxus egeriana, Alnus julianiformis). The EW flora has probably many common features with the Upper Oligocene­Lower Miocene floras of Swiss Molassa (e.g. Monod) and France (e.g. Bois D'AssON) but we are unable to bring a more precise comparison without their modern revision. The Lower Miocene floras of North Bohemia (e.g. BŰZEK 1971), partly include elements that occur at EW (Ulmus pyramidalis, ROSA, "Viburnum" atlanticum, Fraxinus, Acer tricuspidatum, Calamus and differ distinctly by lacking Oligocène (Palaeogene) elements such as Osmunda lignitum, Dryophyllum, "Elaeodendron" europea, Comptonia dryandroides, "Rhamnus" warthae. Acknowledgements - We are indebted to Dr. L. FÜKÖH, director of the Mátra Museum, who al­lowed us to revise the collections at Gyöngyös. We also thank Dr. L. KORDOS, the keeper of the collections at MÁFI, who made I. PÁLFALVY'S material available. The biostratigraphical research of the holostratotype has also progressed since PÁLFALVI'S and ANDREÁNSZKY'S studies and we acknowledge the supply of new data on nannoplankton (Dr. A. NAGYMAROSY), molluscs (Dr. T BÁLDI), palynology (Dr. E. NAGY, Dr. E. PLANDERO­VÁ). We obtained valuable data from other parts of Europe, particuiary from Dr. Sc. H. WALTHER (Dres­den), Dr. S. G. ZHULIN (Leningrad), Dr. A. I. CELEBAEVA (Moscow), Dr. C. BÜZEK, Dr. M. KONZALOVÁ and Dr. E. KNOBLOCH (Prague) and Dr. J. KOVAR-EDER (Vienna) whom we should like to thank also.
