Holocene Ostracoda (Crustacea) from the Baćina Lakes (Dalmatia, Croatia)

We identified a diverse ostracod fauna within three cores including 12 species that are referable to four families: Darwinula stevensoni within Darwinulidae ; Candona paionica, Candona cf. ovalis, Candona meidionalis, Candona cf. expansa, Candona ex. g. neglecta, Candona cf. goricensis, Candona sp., Pseudocandona compressa, Cypria ophtalmica within Candonidae ; Ilyocypris bradyi within Ilyocyprididae ; and Potamocypris sp. within Cyprididae. Most of ostracod species belongs to family Candonidae. Identified Candonids from Baćina Lakes relate best to the known Candonids from Lakes Ohrid, Prespa and Shkodra, all from the Balkan Peninsula. Identified ostracod species provide insight into the changes in the hydrology of Baćina Lakes and can be utilized in the Holocene non-marine deposits as a tool to help establishing paleoenvironments.
