Abstract

The Plio-Pleistocene arvicoline fauna of Zverinogolovskoye is revised. The molar morphology of Pliomys sp., Borsodia praehungarica , Pitymimomys ex gr. inceptor , Pitymimomys baschkiricus , Mimomys ex gr. hajnackensis , Mimomys polonicus , Mimomys hintoni , and M. cf. reidi is described. Biozones of most forms indicate the Late Pliocene–earliest Pleistocene interval (Villanyian European Land Mammal Age, zones MN16 to MN17). The vole fauna includes common species occurring in Western Europe, the Russian Plain, and West Siberia .
