During the 2nd half of 20th century, a succession of new Pleistocene localities was discovered<br />

and some classical paleontological sites were revised. From many of th<strong>os</strong>e places<br />

also bear remains were recor<strong>de</strong>d. Nine localities provi<strong>de</strong>d large material of bear<br />

remains in good stratified layers. Bear record from Moravian localities were studied in<br />

<strong>de</strong>tails by Prof. R. MUSIL from Brno. This paper presents a review of updated knowledge<br />

on this localities - especially about their stratigrafical p<strong>os</strong>ition (based on micromammalian<br />

evi<strong>de</strong>nce) and basic information on bear remains studied.<br />
