“…The early and middle Serravallian palynomorph assemblages of Anatolia were determined from Aydın-Şahinali, İncirliova, Hasköy, Söke and Köşk areas in the Büyük Menderes Graben (Akgün & Akyol, 1999), Muğla-Yatağan (Atalay, 1980;Erdei, Yavuz, Akgün, & Hably, 2002;Sickenberg, 1975), Akhisar-Çıtak (Akgün & Akyol, 1987;Akgün et al, 2007;Göktaş & Ünay, 2000;Yağmurlu, 1984), İzmir-Kocaçay and İzmir-Cumaovası basins from western Anatolia (Kayseri-Özer, Sözbilir, & Akgün, 2014), Çorum (Kaymakçı, Özçelik, White, & Van Dijk, 2001;Şen et al, 1998;Sümengen et al, 1990), Kırşehir-Avcıköy and Hacıbektaş Tekkaya, 1974), Konya-Ilgın Karayiğit et al, 1999), Yozgat-Çiçekdağ ) from central Anatolia. According to these studies, the palaeoclimate was warm during the Serravallian-middle Tortonian interval.…”

“…The latest Serravallian-earliest Tortonian palynomorph assemblages were defined from Aydın-Köşk, Hasköy, Sarayköy (Akgün & Akyol, 1999), Muğla-Yatağan region (Atalay, 1980;Erdei et al, 2002;Sickenberg, 1975) in western Anatolia and Sivas-Gemerek (Vasıltepe) (Kayseri & Akgün, 2002;Langereis, Şen, Sümengen, & Ünay, 1990;Sümengen et al, 1990), Kırşehir-Tuzköy in central Anatolia. The palynoflora of the latest Serravallian-earliest Tortonian was represented by abundant swamp (Taxodioideae and Myricaceae) and mountain forest elements (Pinus haploxylon and P. silvestris types).…”

The continental climatic evolution of Anatolia has been reconstructed quantitatively for the last 45 million years using the coexistence approach. Although there were some regional effects, the Anatolian Cenozoic continental climate record correlated with the European climatic condition and the global oxygen isotope record from marine environments. From middle Eocene to late Miocene, continental warming in Anatolia was pronounced for inferred winter temperature and mean annual temperature as in Europe. Generally, the palaeoclimatic property of Anatolia resembles the European climatic changing and marine temperature changing based on the oxygen isotope record; however, climatic values of the terrestrial area in Anatolia are higher from Lutetian to Aquitanian and these values are lower than European values from Aquitanian to Tortonian. Correspondingly, Cenozoic climatic cooling in Anatolia is directly associated with an increase of seasonality, palaeogeographic position and terrestrial condition. Furthermore, mean annual precipitation values of Anatolia remained relatively stable during the Eocene-Oligocene; however, these values indicated changing throughout middle-late Miocene. Moreover, in this study, decline of abundance and variables for the mangrove and back mangrove palaeocommunities during the last 45 million years is recorded because of the decreasing of humidity, temperature and increasing of terrestrial condition.

“…The magnetostratigraphy of the Turkish Gemerek section (showing two reversed zones separated by a normal zone only) with the Korlak and Gemerek tie points is criticized by Krijgsman et al [12], who conclude that no reliable correlation to the GPTS can be made for the Gemerek section. Furthermore the correlations of the mammal faunas to the MN zonation are not firmly established [13], in spite of claims otherwise [9]. Nevertheless the section served as the estimate of the top of MN4 [9].…”

Abstract:The collection of small mammals from lacustrine sediments at deli hill (SW of Sivas city, Central Anatolia) contains seventeen species of rodents and two species of lagomorphs. There are four Muridae: Apodemus dominans, Occitanomys (Rhodomys) The rodents in the fauna include a new species of murid, which is characterized by its small size (in the length/width ratio) and simple molar morphology. In this paper, I present the description of Occitanomys (Rhodomys) vandami nov. sp. The deli locality is assigned to the Early Pliocene / Early Ruscinian (MN 14) on the basis of the occurrence of Promimomys insuliferus in the deli fauna.
