Abstract
In this article is analysed for the first time the ostracods association from the Early Pliocene (MPL 3 Zone) sandy clayey silt outcropping, along the shore, to the left of the Nocella river mouth (Castellammare Gulf, NW Sicily). The ostracods association is abundant and well preserved and is referred to a not very deep paleoenvironment of the Continental Shelf. Some species, belonging to the genera Cytherelloidea, Eucytherura, Pseudocytherura, Aurila, Pachycaudites, Tenedocythere, Capsacythere, Echinocythereis have been identified, described and figured here for the first time.
