Sažetak
During gravel exploatation from the river Sava near Županja (Croatia) an isolated bovine atlas was found. After palaeontological study (morphometric characteristic, brown colour, strong petrification) it was determined to pertain to the Upper pleistocene bovines (Bos seu Bison). Detailed anatomical and metrical comparison was made between the fossil atlas from Županja and the atlas of the recent Istrian cattle (Bos taurus primigenius), which is the representative of the most primitive primogenetic bovine form, osteologically completely akin to the original fossil species Bos primigenius. Using the literatured data both atlases were metrically correlated with the atlases of the following fossil and recent species: Bison priscus, Bison bonasus, Bos primigenius and Bos taurus. It was not possible to determine the fossil atlas generically, while the recent one is well defined. All analysis indicated that problems concerning the identification of isolated atlases, which were hitherto studied on the fossil and recent bovine species mentioned above, are equally expressed both on the fossil atlas from Županja as well as on the atlas of the primitive recent Istrian cattle species (Bos taurus primigenius).
