| Description | Mokrá-Quarry (South Moravia, Czech Republic) constitutes a unique fossil site with an extraordinary diversity of vertebrate remains. Most of the research on Mokrá-Quarry localities has focused on herpe – to fauna and, in most recent years, also in rodent remains. However, non-rodent small mammals have not been studied in detail. In this work, preliminary results of the small mammal assemblage belonging to the orders Chiroptera and Eulipotyphla, together with remains of Amphiperatherium from Mokrá-Quarry fissures are presented for the first time. The paleoecology inferred from these taxa agrees with previous studies, depicting Mokrá-Quarry as a karst landscape with open steppes, patches of woodland and close water bodies. |
