Abstract
Yıllar geçtikçe
artan tür sayısı ile Çorakyerler, Anadolu Geç Miyosen’i için bir referans
lokalite konumuna gelmiştir. Son derece zengin bir faunaya sahip olan bu
lokalitede son yıllarda yapılan kazı çalışmalarında iki adet Hystricidae (oklu kirpigiller) ailesine
mensup materyal açığa çıkarılmıştır. 2015’e dek Çorakyerler’deki varlığı
bilinmeyen bu üyeler, lokaliteyi daha zengin kılmış ve paleoekolojik yorumlara
destek sağlamıştır. Yapılan morfolojik çalışmalar ve plot diyagram analizleri
sonucunda Çorakyerler oklu kirpi materyallerinin şu an için Hystrix sp. adı altında toplanması uygun
görülmüştür. Anadolu’daki sınırlı sayıda lokalitede tanımlanmış olan bu genus
için, Çorakyerler örneklerinin sonuçları oldukça kritik görünmektedir. Bu
örnekler genusun Turoliyen temsilcilerinin sistematik tanımlamasının
yapılabilmesi açısından son derece önemli konumdalardır.
