The first stage of evolution of the basin was controlled by intense normal fault activity and resulted in the formation of an isolated basin, surrounded by limestone-marly relief. The existence of a non-permanent water marshy area, with an important vegetated area, explain the abundance and diversity of the fossil remains in the studied localityspaAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Iberian ChainSynsedimentary tectonicsAlluvial fansVertebratesjournal articleopen access
