Abstract

The upper molar of a small ursid from Priozernoe locality in Moldova (the Trans-Dniester Region) incorporating remains of Moldavian faunal vertebrate complex (MN15) was found to belong to the Asian black bear (Ursus thibetanus). This discovery ascertains the time of first appearance of U. thibetanus in Europe in the early Pliocene.
