Abstract

Intensive screen-washing carried out at the Upper Cretaceous Iharkút paleovertebrate locality (Hungary) has produced several tons of screened substance. In this work an improved method is described for the extraction of microfossils from sediments based on wax-lard flotation. Besides previously described taxa, many fragmentary lissamphibian bones were unearthed from this paleovertebrate locality among some partially identified bone fragments. This suggests the Iharkút lissamphibian fauna was more diverse than suggested by the taxa described so far.
