TY - JOUR ID - 562768 AU - Ivanov, Martin PY - 1999 TI - The first European pit viper from the Miocene of Ukraine JF - Acta Palaeontologica Polonica VL - 44 IS - 3 SP - 327-334 EP - 327-334 SN - 05677920 KW - Snakes KW - Crotalinae KW - migrations KW - Miocene KW - Ukraine N2 - The first discoveries of European pit vipers (Crotalinae gen. et sp. indet. A and B) are reported from the Ukrainian Late Miocene (MN 9a)locality of Gritsev. Based on perfectly preserved maxillaries, two species closely related to pit vipers of the 'Agkistrodon' complex are represented at this site. It is suggested that European fossil representatives of the 'Agkistrodon' complex are Asiatic immigrants. Pit vipers probably never expanded into the broader areas of Europe during their geological history. ER -
