Middle Miocene shark teeth from the southern margin of the Pannonian basin system (Serbia, Central Paratethys)

Abstract: This paper describes Middle Miocene (Badenian) shark teeth from Serbia and discusses their geographical distribution at other localities of the Central Paratethys. The shark teeth originate from Višnjica (near Belgrade), from Višnjica Clay, or the 'Pleurotoma Clay'. The variety of sharks is very low, but according to these fossils Višnjica is the richest among Serbian localities. The sharks teeth reported in the paper belong to the following taxa: Otodus (Megaselachus) megalodon (AGASSIZ, 1835), Hemipristis se… Show more

“…during the late early Miocene and Middle Mi ocene (Badenian), the climate in the Central Paratehys was mainly subtropical (KOvač et al, 2007). This is supported at the southern margin by the abundance of thermophilous mollusc taxa as well as in the same interpretations made by other authors engaged in the same fieldwork (JOvanOvić et al, 2019c;MandiC et al, 2019). The studied mollusc fauna indicates the influence of the period of global warming, so called Middle Miocene Climatic Optimum (MMCO initial warming beginning ca.…”

“…While earlier studies on benthic foraminifera and stomatopods suggested that the Duho Formation was deposited under shallow marine conditions on a continental shelf (Kim and Choi, 1977;Yun, 1985), more recent studies have suggested a deep-sea accumulation model possibly of up to 500-2000 m depositional depth based on the occurrences of fossils such as Chondrites and Vinciguerria (Jung and Lee, 2009;Seong et al, 2009;Kim and Paik, 2013;Nam and Nazarkin, 2018;Nam et al, 2019). Th e tooth crowns of the specimens described in this work are relatively well-preserved, suggesting that these were also deposited in a low-energy, deep-water environment and the possibility that these represent the ones transported from the shallow marine environment by turbiditic currents is unlikely as such processes would severely damage the tooth (Seong et al, 2009;Jovanović et al, 2019). Th us, the presence of Mitsukurina cf.…”

“…In the latest Early Miocene, the Central Parate thys mainly occupied the northwestern part of the Pannonian Basin in Slovenia, austria, Slovakia and Hungary. During the early Middle Mio cene this sea extended to the southeastern Pannonian Ba sin in Croatia, Bosnia and Her zegovina and Serbia, to the Transylvanian Basin in Romania, and to the Carpa thian fore deep (e. g. ćoRIć et al, 2009;PEZELj et al, 2013;TER BoRgH et al, 2014;SaNT et al, 2017SaNT et al, , 2018joVaNoVIć et al, 2019joVaNoVIć et al, , 2019aMaNDIC et al, 2019). During this marine water expansion, there were a few corridors between Central and Eastern Paratethys Sea (NEU -BaUER et al, 2015).…”
