Abstract


Five new micrommamal localities have been recently found in Miocene successions of the north-eastern part of the Madrid Basin (prov. of Guadalajara). These mammal sites provide new data about the age of the Tertiary sequences in the area. The locality of Gárgoles de Abajo only contains Caenotherium which ranges Oligocene to middle Aragonian; lower to middle Aragonian age is suggested for this locality in view of its stratigraphic position. The locality of Pajares has yielded a micromammal fauna that is clearly indicative of the Middle Aragonian. The locality of Lupiana shows a micromammal association characteristic of the upper Aragonian. The localities of Ledanca and Cendejas de la Torre 2 contain micromammal faunes that are attributable to the lower Vallesian.
