| Rudabánya | The Rudabánya locality is situated at the transition from the Inner Western Carpathians (represented by the Rudabánya Hills) to the Pannonian Basin. The fossils were collected in iron ore open pits and mines (the younger and larger ones named Andrassy I, Andrassy II, Andrassy III and Vilmos; see map in fig. 2 of Nemeth et al., 2013, Carp. J. Earth Envir. Sci. 8(1):47-58) from the soft Cenozoic cover of the diagenetically limonitized and sideritized target rocks which are mainly Triassic in age. coordinate is for abandoned Andrassy II and Vilmos mines about 3 km NE of village of Rudabánya | Tortonian zwischen 9.7 und 11.1 Millionen Jahren |
Edelény | Rudabánya 1 ("Mastodon Wall"), Rudabánya 2 ("Gibraltar"), Rudabánya 3 ("The Great Wall"), Rudabánya 4, Rudabánya 5, Rudabánya 6, Rudabánya 7 |

| "A synthesis of the biochronologic bases for Rudabánya II’s age strongly supports a late MN 9, Pannonian F correlation, ca. 10-9.7 Ma" (Bernor et al., 2004). All other sublocalities are regarded to be contemporaneous (Bernor et al., 2004). According to Nemeth et al. (2013) the Pannonian sediments of the Rudabánya mining area are referred to as Edelény Formation. | "Rudabánya’s sediments include cyclic layers of gray marl, clay and lignite, totalling 8-12 meters in thickness. These sediments, include rich fossiliferous levels that contain plant impressions, seeds, molluscs, vertebrate remains and, of especial note, catarrhine primates" (Bernor et al., 2004). For a more elaborate description of the sediments of the Rudabanya 2 sublocality see Andrews & Cameron (2010). | The emphasis of the paper by Bernor et al. (2004) is on the Rudabánya 2 (also spelled "Rudabánya II") sublocality but most co-authors list taxa from all sublocalities without giving particularities on specimens and/or sites. List contains taxa that may have been cited by earlier authors under a different name and/or combination and some names cited in earlier works may have fallen into synonymy with those cited in the list (may already be noted in the list). Determinations in Bernor et al. (2004): E. Krolopp (molluscs); Z. Roek (amphibians); Z. Szyndlar (snakes); D. Janossy (birds); G. Topal (bats); L. Kordos and D. R. Begun (primates); G. Daxner-Höck, O. Fejfar, and L. Kordos (rodents); L. Werdelin (carnivorans); M. Gasparik (proboscideans); R. L. Bernor, M. Armour-Chely, T. Kaiser, R. Scott, L. de Bonis, J. Franzen, and K. Heissig (perissodactyls); M. Fortelius, R. L. Bernor, N. Fessaha, M. Armour-Chelu, and A. Gentry (artiodactyls). The list only contains vertebrate taxa mentioned in the text of Bernor et al. (2004) and ignores the faunal list given in table 3 (pp. 22-24) since it is partially contradictory to the informations given in the text (e.g. the table lists "?Leptotyphlopidae gen. et sp. indet." whereas Szyndlar in his section on snakes explicitly states that the only vertebra clearly referrable to Scolecophidia may belong to Typhlops and that the presence of leptotyphlopids in Rudabánya is very unlikely). In the taxon list in table 3 there appear 5 chelonian taxa which are not mentioned elsewhere in the paper: Trionyx sp., Geomyda sp., Testudo cf. kalksburgensis, Testudo sp. I, and Testudo sp. II. | ||
