Abstract

New data on the mammal fossil record from the Madrid basin are presented. An updated biochronological arrangement of the Madrid basin faunas is proposed based on the results of similarity analyses. Similarity analysis was performed using either entire faunas, the large mammals, or the small mammals and the results are discussed and compared with other biochronologic and biostratigraphic European scales. New data on the relative abundance of mammal taxa from localities of the Madrid basin are presented and discussed.
