Middle Aalenian - Lower Bajocian (Middle Jurassic) ammonites from Büdöskút, an old locality in the Bakony Mts, Transdanubian Hungary

In one of the repositories of the Hungarian Geological and Geophysical Institute a collection of ammonites from the Bakony Mountains was discovered, which goes back to the field activities of J. NOSZKY in the 1930’s. The material was collected at Büdöskút, in those times a farmhouse between Eplény and Lókút, near Zirc. The ammonites are Middle Aalenian and Lower Bajocian in age. These age intervals and faunas are known only in a few localities within the region. Although the wellpreserved specimens were collected without special attention to fine stratigraphical information, thus their biostratigraphic value is very limited, the occurrences of certain species (e.g. Erycites (Abbasitoides) modestus, described in detail) give an addition to the knowledge of Middle Jurassic ammonite faunas of the Bakony Mts
