| Popis: | Summarization: Environmental change significantly affects the production of fish resources and their dependent societies. The paleontological record offers unique insight into the effects of long-term paleoenvironmental variability on the fish species’ distributions and abundances. In the present study, we investigate the late Miocene (7.5–6.5 Ma) fish assemblages of the Potamida section in western Crete (eastern Mediterranean). The determined fish taxa are examined in a paleobiogeographic context, with regard to their geographic and stratigraphic distribution from the early Miocene (~13 Ma) through today. In addition, present-day ecological data are used to reconstruct the paleoenvironmental conditions in the study area. Planktonic foraminifer biostratigraphy significantly improves the earlier dating of the studied sequence. The late Miocene fish fauna of Potamida includes 35 taxa (seven in open nomenclature) from 13 teleost families. The eastern Mediterranean biostratigraphic and geographic distribution of 32 taxa is significantly expanded into the Tortonian, whereas 13 species are recorded for the first time from the Messinian. Four stages are distinguished in the area’s paleoenvironmental evolution. (1) The Potamida area was an open marine environment with depths exceeding 150 m between ~7.5–7.45 Ma. (2) Between 7.45–7.36 Ma, the results suggest depths between 300–400 m. (3) The depositional depth increases between 7.36–7.28 Ma to 400–550 m. (4) Later on, approximately between 6.8–6.6 Ma, the depth is again estimated around 100–150 m. Presented on: International Journal of Earth Sciences |
