A new species of Vasseuromys (Gliridae, Mammalia) from the Upper Oligocene of the Ebro Basin (Spain)

In this paper, a new species of Vasseuromys, V. bergasensis sp. nov., from the locality of Bergasa (Ebro Basin, Spain), is described. Bergasa contains a fauna belonging to the Late Oligocene (zone MP30), composed— among other species—of Issiodoromys pseudanaema and Rhodanomys transiens. The main dia...
