The Fossils of the Carpathian Region

The Fossils of the Carpathian Region By Istvan Fozy, Istvan Szente, Gareth Dyke
2014 | 508 Pages | ISBN: 0253009820 | PDF | 136 MB


Istvan Fozy and Istvan Szente provide a comprehensive review of the fossil record of the Carpathian Basin in modern-day Hungary. The Fossils of the Carpathian Region describes and illustrates the region's fossils, recounts their history, and tells the stories of key people involved in paleontological research in the area. In addition to covering all the important fossils of this region, special attention is given to rare finds and complete skeletons. The region's fossils range from tiny foraminifera to the huge Transylvanian dinosaurs, mastodons, and mammals. The book also gives non-specialists the opportunity to gain a basic understanding of palaeontology. Sidebars present brief biographies of important figures and explain how to collect, prepare, and interpret fossils.
