During study of the fossil rodent material from the Csodabogyós Cave, a rich Vasseuromys assemblage was elaborated. Some metrical and morphological characteristics of the finds differ from the Late Miocene (MN 11) Vasseuromys pannonicus from Eichkogel and Kohfidisch and also vary from Vasseuromys tectus described from Ukraine. In this publication a taxonomical description of the new species is presented with its palaeogeographical and paleoecological relationships.
