Material. 1 otolith, NMNHU-P PI 2600, Novyi Pliazh.

Discussion. The single, small otolith of 2.5 mm in length lacks the fragile rear part. It is a typical otolith of the genus Physiculus that differs from P. moravicus (Brzobohatý and Schultz, 1978) from the Badenian of the Central Paratethys (Brzobohatý and Schultz, 1978) in the strongly pointed anterior tip and the smooth dorsal and ventral rims and outer face.
