✦ Synopsis

Skeletal remains of anuran amphibians are described from sediment filled earthfall depression of upper Pliocene age near KaltensundheidRhon (Thuringia). Bufo bufo (Linnaeus, 1758), Bufo sp., Rana temporaria Linnaeus, 1758, as well as a probable parietal of an indeterminate salientian could be distinguished. There is no evidence of the often mentioned Latoniu. This genus should be eliminated from the faunal list of Kaltensundheim.
