Abstract: The present study is part of a taxonomical and stratigraphie revision that aims at a better knowledge of the Neogene mammalian fauna of the Carpathian Basin. As a result, disregarding the ambiguous comparison with the finds originating from greater distances, the author describes the succession of the local Cricetidae. The study deals with 16 species of 10 genera: Eumyarion bifidus, Democricetodon gaillardi, Neocricetodon schauni, N. fahlbuschi, Karstocricetus skofleki gen.n., sp. n., Karstocricetus sp., Cricetus kormosi, Cricetus sp., Kowalskia polonica, K. magna, K. intermedia, Cricetulus spp. I-II, Cricetinus europaeus, Allocricetus cf. bursae and Baranomys sp.
