Reefal and lagoonal facies of the Wetterstein Limestone Formation, constituting the main mass of Alsó Hill extends along the Hungarian-Slovakian border, contain a rich foraminifer assemblage of Carnian age. In the species- and specimen-rich foraminifer fauna of the reefal facies, species Gsollbergella spiroloculiformis (Oravecz-Scheffer), Aulotortus sinuosus Weynschenk, Urnulinella andrusovi (Borza et Samuel), Cucurbita infundibuliformis Jablonsky, Miliolipora cuvillieri Brönnimann et Zaninetti, Palaeolituonella meridionalis (Luperto) are frequent. The lagoonal facies is characterized by the great number of specimens of the genus Earlandinita, the mass occurrence of Aulotortus friedli (Kristan-Tollmann) and the even distribution of the taxon Variostoma. A new species, Endothyranella inflata nov. sp., is described. Its representatives can be found in the Wetterstein Limestone of both the lagoon and the back reef on Alsó Hill, Northern Hungary.
