Description
Summary:During 1999 and 2001 re-excavations in Križna jama were carried out, which brought crucial results concerning the taxonomical and stratigraphical position of the fossil taphocoenosis, especially of cave bears, and on their ethology. Moreover new data on the hydrological structure of the cave as well as on its sedimentology were published. A substantial part of this volume is dedicated to the extant fauna of this cave, which is extraordinary rich in species.
Nachgrabungen in den Jahren 1999 und 2001 brachten nicht nur wesentliche Erkenntnisse über die taxonomische und chronologische Stellung der fossilen Höhlenfauna und ihrer Lebensweise der Höhlenbären sondern auch neue Daten für die Entstehungsgeschichte der Höhle (Speläogenese), vom Verlauf der ober- und unterirdischen Gewässer (Hydrogeologie) sowie von der Sedimentologie der fossilführenden Sedimente. Ein ausführliche Artikel ist auch der überaus artenreichen rezenten Höhlenfauna gewidmet.
