The cause of the middle Miocene Badenian salinity crisis in the Central Paratethys is addressed by examining the palaeotemperature evolution of Badenian waters before and after the deposition of evaporites. Selected foraminifer taxa (__Globigerinoides__ spp., __Globigerina bulloides__, and __Uvigeri
