Abstract

The assemblage of echinoids from the Middle Miocene (Badenian) red-algal (lithothamnian) detrital limestones (the Pinczow Limestones) of the Pinczow - Busko area in southern slopes of the Holy Cross Mountains, Central Poland, comprises the representatives of the ten genera, such as Cidaris, Cyathocidaris, Plegiocidaris, Centrostephanus, Arbacina, Psammechinus, Parasalenia, Clypeaster, Echinocyamus, and Echinolampas . The studied assemblage which comes from the key sections exposed at Pinczow, Skowronno, Busko, Żerniki, Szczaworyz, and Kikow, bears distinct similarities to these recognized in the coeval deposits of the Korytnica Basin in the near neighborhood, as well as to those reported from other parts of the Paratethys basins and from the Mediterranean, Egypt including.
