Abstract: A distribution model is presented for Eocene sedimentary rocks of Bakony Mts. formed under different water depths, based on bathymétrie significance of larger foraminifers, using backward extension of modern sea investigation's data. A shallow marine environment developed by rapid transgression during the Early Lutetian time. A deepening trend resulted in more pelitic sedimentation and decrease of larger foraminifers reached shallow bathyal depth range during the Late Lutetian time.
