Abstract
Mixtacandona talianae n. sp. (Ostracoda, Candoninae), collected in the Holo cene filling sedimentary succession of the Grotta del Lago near Triponzo (U mbria, Central Italy), is described and illustred. This medium-small sized species is characterized by a remarkable dorsal protuberance on the left va lve. C-14 radiometric ages on the sediments correlatable with those bearing the new species have provided ages of 4,527-4,409 y BP (calibrated ages).
