Middle Pleistocene remains of birds from Kozi Grzbiet in the Świętokrzyskie Mts. (Holy Cross Mts. – Central Poland)

  • Zygmunt BOCHEŃSKI

Abstract:

Five fragmentary bones of birds have been found among very abundant bony remains contained in the breccia filling of a karst fissure in Kozi Grzbiet in the Świętokrzyskie Mts. and referred to the Mindel I/Mindel II interglacial. They have been assigned to Tetrao cf. praeurogallus, Lagopus lagopus, Tetrastes cf. praebonasia, Falco tinnunculus atavus and Turdus sp. It may be assumed that these birds lived in forests of the temperate zone.
