| The Cerro de los Batallones (Los Batallones Butte) is located in the central-northern area of the Madrid Basin, central Spain. Nine vertebrates localities containing a large variety of mammals of Upper Vallesian Age (Late Miocene) have been found associated with the sediments forming the butte. From bottom to top, these sediments consist of magnesian lutite beds (Unit I), paleosols formed of sepiolite and opal (Unit II), and siliclastic, marlstone and carbonate beds (Unit III). The set of ERT profiles developed in Los Batallones Butte have demonstrate that electrical imaging techniques are an estimable tool for the characterization and prospecting of fossil sites developed in fine-grained siliciclastic sequences. These localities contain an exceptionally... |

| The fossil record of the genus Hystrix is rather scarce, and little is known about its origin. Its presence in Crevillente 2, a well-dated Lower Turolian (MN11) Spanish locality, is an important fact because, from a stratigraphic point of view, it is one of the oldest references of this genus. The comparative study of the remains from Crevillente 2 reveals the presence of a small species, Hystrix suevica, which lived in Europe from Middle Aragonian to Early Turolian time. In most recent revisions of the genus Hystrix, this species has not been taken into account. H. suevica shows undeniable morphological affinities with H. primigenia. The latter was a large-sized Hystrix, which spread over Europe from Middle Turolian to Late Pliocene time, reaching Africa... |

| The fossil Proboscidea from the Spanish Turolian (Upper Miocene) sites of Crevillente 2 (MN11) and Crevillente 15 and 16 (MN12) are described. The mastodont from Crevillente 2 is assigned to Tetralophodon cf. longirostris ‘grandincisivoid form’, recognised for the first time in the Iberian Peninsula, and that from Crevillente 16 to Tetralophodon longirostris. The Deinotheriidae from Crevillente 2 and Crevillente 15 are identified as Deinotherium giganteum and Deinotherium sp., respectively. The status of ‘Mastodon’ grandincisivus and the ‘grandincisivoid forms’ of Gomphotherium and Tetralophodon are discussed. |

| Se describen y analizan las características sedimentológicas y tafonómicas del yacimiento del Mioceno medio (Aragoniense medio) de La Retama (Cuenca, España). El ambiente sedimentario se interpreta como un "fan delta" formado en un lago somero. Los huesos se acumulaban durante la estación seca en los bordes del lago y posteriormente eran transportados dentro del lago por corrientes viscosas formadas durante los períodos de lluvia. Asimismo se discute el significado de las faunas con Hispanotherium. El análisis cuantitativo y cualitativo de la fauna de La Retama y su comparación con otras tres faunas españolas con Hispanotherium prueba la existencia de importantes diferencias entre todas estas faunas. Sólo la asociación faunística encontrada en la localidad... |
