Sziráki, Gy. ; Dulai, A.: Sarmatian (Late Miocene) arthropods from Tállya and neighbouring localities (Tokaj Mts, Hungary): preliminary report

Figs 18-19. 18 = Brachiura (Crustacea: Decapoda) sp. from Erdőbénye: diatomite quarry (code num­ber in CE: 23/6). 19 = Baëtidae (Ephemeroptera) sp. from Erdőbénye: diatomite quarry (PSZ) The mayfly larva from Erdőbénye is especially interesting, because (apart from the trace fossils) it is the first known fossil Ephemeroptera from the Carpathian Basin and its surroundings. This larva most probably represents a spe­cies belonging to the family Baëtidae, because of relatively narrow head, long legs with slender femur, large thorax, minute and leaf-like tracheal gills and moderately long caudal filaments (Fig. 18). Furthermore, this is the first finding of the Baëtidae from the Miocene, as their fossils were hitherto found in Pliocene and Holocene only (CARPENTER 1992). * Acknowledgements - The authors are grateful to GYÖRGY ENCSY who made possible the study of his collection and showed us the localities at Tállya and Abaújszántó, as well as to LÁSZLÓ FORRÓ and GYŐZŐ SZÉL (Crustaca Collection and Coleoptera Collection respectively in the Department of Zoology of HNHM) for consultations.
