Hír, J.: Cricetids (Rodentia, Mammalia) of the Early Pleistocene vertebrate fauna of Somssich-hegy 2 (Southern Hungary, Villány Mountains)

Cricetus nanus SctlAUB, 1930 It is not mentioned by JÁNOSSY (1986), but the biometrical study verified the presence of this species (Figs 17-19), which is the least common hamster of the locality. C. nanus is very abundant in the Early Biharian faunas the (HÍR 1994/;), but in the following Nagy harsány-hegy phase it becomes rare. Its presence in the 14th layer of the locality is the possible LAD of C. nanus in the Carpathian Basin. Figs 5-7.
