developed. The posterolophulid is strong. The posterosinusid is closed on the lingual side. rr»2 — The lingual anterocongulum is missing or very reduced. (Figure 14: 6). The mesolophid is short; the ectomesolophid is reduced or not developed. The posterosinusid is lingually opened. nu — The lingual anterocingulum is weekly developed. The mesolophid is short, or middle developed (Figure 14: 7). Eaomesolophid is not found. The posterosinusid is lingually opened. Comments — The material is limited and the drawing of any deduction is possible only carefully. Compared to the material of Hasznos (KORDOS 1986), the Cricetodon molars from Sámsonhaza show a simplification in the morphology: the lack of the closed central rings and shortening of the mesolophes in the M

2 molars, the missing of the lingual anterolophulid in the mi molars, the shortening of mesolophids and ectomesolophids in the lower molars. Remarkable difference between the two Hungarian Cricetodon materials was not found in the measurements. On the basis of the recently known finds we can interpret the teeth from Sámsonháza as local descendants of C. hungaricus.

The anterolophulid is V shaped, the main branch connects the anteroconid and the protoconid, the other one is situated between the anteroconid and the anterolabial cingulum. The metalophulid is well developed and connected to the anterolophulid in front of the protoconid. The metalophulid bears a short posteriorly directed enamel ridge. The mesolophid is doubled and reaches the lingual margin of the crown. The ectomesolophid is long, the posterolophulid has two branches. The Eumyarion genus is well known from the Early and Middle Miocene of Western and Central Europe and Turkey (DE BRUIJN & SARAÇ 1991). In Hungary the presence of the genus is known from Hasznos (KORDOS 1986), Mátraszőlős (GÁL et al. 2000, HíR et al. 1999), Felsőtárkány, and Rudabánya (KORDOS, personal communication), but neither of these localities produced statistic material. The two E. bifidus mi of Hasznos are small and tight. The finds from Mátraszőlős 1-2 fit better to E. latior. The unpublished molars from Felsőtárkány 3/2 are close to E. medius. The stratigraphie range of this species is MN6-MN7 referring to BOLLIGER (1994). After SACH (1999) this range is restricted only to MN6 zone.
