Rich brachiopod assemblages are known from the Lower and Middle Jurassic deposits of the Danubian and Getic tectonic units (eastern Serbia). A quantitative assessment of the relevant palaeontological data can shed light on the relationship of these units in the palaeospace. In the present study, the brachiopod assemblages from the Danubian and Getic tectonic units are compared with similarity indices (the Jaccard similarity of species, genera, families, and superfamilies, and the Czekanowski and Gower similarity of the genus–species, family–species, and superfamily-species diversity structures). This analysis is applied to five geological time slices when brachiopods flourished regionally, namely the Early Pliensbachian, the Late Bajocian, the Early Bathonian, the Middle Bathonian, and the Late Bathonian. Generally, the values of the indices imply moderate similarity. The similarity was significantly lower in the Middle Jurassic relatively to the Early Jurassic. The similarity of the Early Pliensbachian brachiopods of the Danubian and Getic tectonic units was significant relatively to the similarity between some European regions. The documented decrease in the similarity through the geological time can be explained by the increase in the global palaeobiogeographical differentiation in the Middle Jurassic. Display omitted •E Pliensbachian, L Bajocian, E, M, L Bathonian brachiopods from eastern Serbia•Moderate similarity of brachiopods between Danubian and Getic tectonic units•Similarity decreased significantly in M Jurassic relatively to E Jurassic.•Global palaeobiogeographical differentiation as trigger of similarity decrease
