Fossil chela of an erymid lobster from a single locality of the upper Bajocian in the Western Fore-Balkan Mts (NW Bulgaria) was studied. Two segments of the thoracic appendages, probably belonging to one individual, were described: 1) P1 propodus with partially preserved pollex and dactylus; and 2) P1 carpus and P1 merus attached. These elements of the first pair of pereiopods of a lobster were identified as Eryma compressum (Eudes-Deslongchamps, 1842). Eryma compressum a is well-known taxon from numerous Jurassic localities in Europe but has not been recorded in Bulgaria to date. Therefore, albeit being an isolated finding with only a few elements, the Bulgarian example contributes to the overall record of European erymid faunas from the Middle Jurassic, and especially in Eastern Europe, from where only a few erymids have been reported.

Abstract The upper Bajocian (middle Jurassic) heterogeneous polygene breccias of the Riou d'Entraix (southeast France) are interpreted as olistostromes formed by gravity sliding along a paleoscarp. The scarp was to the east, in the area presently covered by overthrusts, and separated a euxinic deep basin from a well-oxygenated shallow shelf. Similar deposits in the Barcelonette window and the semi-window at Embrun are probably of the same origin.
