This contribution presents remains of very rare bivalves from Miocene beds of Meljski hrib, Vukovski dol and surroundings of Lenart in Slovenske gorice. Determined were bivalves Solemya doderleini ...(Mayer, 1861), Lentipecten denudatus (Reuss, 1867), Limaria labani (Meznerics, 1936), Cubitostrea digitalina (Dubois, 1831) and Ostrea lamellosa Brocchi, 1814. In northeastern borders of Maribor were found in sandy and micaceous marlstones of Meljski hrib next to bivalves also remains of ophiuroids. The studied inventory of mollusks and echinoderms belongs to Miocene beds of the southern part of the Styrian basin of the Central Paratethys.
Remains of molluscs from a small outcrop at Zgornji Osek (section Osek-2) in Slovenske gorice are described. Some melanopsid gastropods and a bivalve Mytilopsis ornithopsis (Brusina, 1892) were ...documented. The fossil assemblage from fluvio-lacustrine sediments at Osek-2 corresponds to the Early Pannonian.
This article is a contribution to the taxonomical investigation of Middle Miocene (Sarmatian) molluscs from section (fossil site) Osek-1 at Spodnji Osek (Slovenske gorice) in the Mura-Zala basin on ...western margin of Central Paratethys. One gastropod species Acteocina lajonkaireana and four bivalves Musculus sarmaticus, Sarmatimactra eichwaldi, Ervilia dissita and Venerupis dissita have been systematically described. The identifid fauna is assigned to the Lower Sarmatian age.
In the paper relatively modestly preserved but very numerous pteropod remains from Middle Miocene – Badenianmicaceous marlstones of Poli~ki Vrh locality in Slovenske gorice, northeastern part of ...Slovenia are described.The fossils were attributed to the pteropod family Cliidae Jeffreys, 1869, respectively the species Clio pedemontana(Mayer, 1868). They represent the first documented finds of this species in Slovenia, and so far also the southernmostoccurrence of the pteropods belonging to this species in Neogene beds of the Styrian basin in the Central Paratethys.
Analizom dostupnih podataka iz novinskih izvješća, povijesnih i crkvenih kronika, raznih kronika potresa, putopisnih knjiga, monografija i znastvenih radova o učincima potresa koji su se dogodili u ...širem području Ormoža na slovensko-hrvatskoj granici 1838. i 1839. godine, ustanovljeno je da je jedan od njih, zabilježen u brojnim regionalnim i globalnim katalozima, zapravo lažnjak. Radi se o navodnom potresu od 26. kolovoza 1838. koji se nikada nije dogodio. Ova se pogreška uvukla u različite biltene i studije, a zatim i u mnoge relevantne kataloge, pa bi taj potres trebalo sustavno brisati iz kataloga koji se koriste za procjenu razine seizmičnosti u područjima sjeverozapadne Hrvatske, sjeveroistočne Slovenije i jugozapadne Mađarske. Što se tiče potresa 31. srpnja 1838., koristili smo važne nove izvore informacija koji nisu bili korišteni niti u jednoj prethodnoj studiji. To je inverziju makroseizmičkih parametara učinilo robusnijom. Naša procjena makroseizmičke momentne magnitude (Mwm =4,8) uglavnom je veća od vrijednosti zabilježenih u dostupnim katalozima. Pouz-dane informacije o učincima slabijeg potresa od 22. ožujka 1839. pronađene su samo za dvije lokacije, pa je njegov epicentar smješten u grad Ormož gdje je zabilježen maksimalni intenzitet. Njegova procijenjena momentna magnituda (Mwm =4,4) bliska je medijanu vrijednosti pronađenih u šest pregledanih kataloga koji navode ovaj potres. Makroseizmički epicentar potresa iz 1838. godine leži u blizini spoja površinskih tragova Donatskog rasjeda s pomakom po pružanju i reversnog Čakovečkog rasjeda. Na temelju njihove pretpostavljene geometrije i položaja makroseizmičkog hipocentra, dajemo blagu prednost Donatskom rasjedu kao seizmogenom izvoru.
In Slovenske gorice, south of Lenart, a 20 m profile of Middle Miocene strata has been exposed. During previous research numerous discoasters have been found among other coccoliths. In Slovenia ...Miocene discoasters have only been found in Badenian sedimentsin Slovenske gorice and they are particularly useful for paleoecological reconstructions.Additional samples were taken from three selected sections in the middle part of the profile, targeting strata with the greatest abundance of discoasters. In two of the three examined sections 9 species of discoasters were identified, the most abundant being D.exilis and D. variabilis. Even though warm water species were found in samples from all three sections, discoasters only occured in two short intervals. This pattern is not a result of temperature changes and is in our opinion connected with the changes in nutrient levelsof seawater.
