Abstract

In the paper the relatively rare fresh to brakisch water snail species Brotia (Tinnyea) escheri the tests of which were found in the Miocene beds of the Tunjiško gričevje is being considered. The species was supposed to be of Sarmatian age. After inspection and determination of nannoplankton in the sediment that filled the snail tests it was found that the nannoplankton flora belongs to the NN 1 biozone, i. e. the Lower Miocene, -Egerian stage.
