Abstract

In this study, micropaleontological studies based on ostracods are carried out on units belonging to Pliocene
aged sedimentary units in Burdur basin in SW Anatolia and environmental assesments are made through other macro and
micro level data (lithostratigraphic and mineralogic). As a result of investigations ten different ostracoda species are determined
in 4 different ostracoda genus belonging to fresh water environment and these fauna are found in 8 samples from 5 measured
stratigraphic sections. Existing of Heterocypris, Candona, llyocypris and Limnocythere species and their known living environments
conform with the volcanic, sedimentologic, tectonic and hydrothermal processes in that period and support each other.
Clay mineralogy, geochemistry and ostracoda fauna of this environment reflect all characteristics of lake facies which are fed
from the continent. It has been demonstrated that, the present Burdur lake gained its actuel setting through a regressive sedimentation
towards NW, and the ostracoda findings show a regular increase on the fresh water characteristics.
