Sumario:A new section including nine stratigraphically superposed microvertebrate fossil localities from the Calatayud-Montalbán basin (Spain) is presented. The Cañada localities and the small mammal assemblages are described, allowing a biostratigraphical correlation with the lower Vallesian from the nearby section of Nombrevilla. The results of this work are important because they help to improve the time resolution of the lower Vallesian faunal record from the Daroca area and to precise their relative biostratigraphical position. In addition, the upper part of the Cañada section includes two Turolian faunas, increasing the poor record from this age in the Calatayud-Montalbán basin.
