Abstract

Theory of Tisia as an isolated and rigid median-mass located into the inner region of Pannonian Basin originated from PRINZ (1914). After 65 years rise this idea partly defeated partly transformed. Nowadays the Tisia Megaunit is regarded as lihosphere fragment broken off the southern margin of Variscan Europe during the Jurassic (Bath) and after a compilated drifting and rotation it occupied the present .tectonic position in the Miocene giving the basement complex - of East Slavonia (Croatia) - South Hungary-North Vojvodina (Yugoslavia) and West Transylvania (Romania). Crystallines and covering Late Paleozoic and Mesozoic overstep sequences show a rarely uniform lithology, lithostratigraphy and geological evolution. On the basis of these features both Pre-Mesozoic as well as Mesozoic sequences are ranged into numerous terranes and subterranes. Each one has tectonically determined boundaries and characteristic lithological-lithostratigraphic content and evolution. The crystalline mass of Hungarian section of Tisia Megaunit is subdivided into three terranes and eight subterranes. All are represented by the same amount of lithostratigraphic units. This lithostratigraphic classification can be regarded as an experimental model which is reasonably suitable for correlation within the Megaunit and in all probablity it fulfils our expectations in the correlation with Variscan Europe.
