Abstract: The biodiversity, biogeography and environmental significance of the Badenian bryozoan fauna of Hungary were recently published by MOISSETTE et al. (2006, 2007). Seventy-one bulk samples, collected at 18 localities (16 outcrops and 2 boreholes) yielded a total number of 238 bryozoan species. This is the most diverse known bryozoan fauna from the Miocene of the Central Paratethys. However, in the above mentioned papers only the summarised lists of species were published, sorted according to palaeogeographical affinities or colonial growth forms. The basic data of each locality and sample, as well as the species lists of all studied samples are given in this paper. Detailed descriptions of the identified bryozoan species are not included and only the most common and most characteristic species are illustrated.
