This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Szabó, Márton (2019): Middle Miocene (Badenian) chondrichthyan and osteichthyan remains from St. Margarethen (eastern Austria) in the vertebrate palaeontological collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum. Fragmenta Palaeontologica Hungarica 36: 53-90, DOI: 10.17111/FragmPalHung.2019.36.53, URL: doi.org/10.17111/fragmpalhung.2019.36.53 Abstract – To actualize the available data regarding Cenozoic fish materials housed in the vertebrate fossil collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum (HNHM), Middle Miocene (Badenian) chondrichthyan remains, unearthed at St.
