Boev Z. large diurnal raptors (Aquila sp. n. close to A. fasciata (VIEILLOT 1822), Aquila sp. n. (ex. gr. clanga) and Circaetus cf. gallicus were present; (Boev, in prep.) at the site, G. bochenskii sp. n. apparently occupied the top of food chain of Varshets zoocoenosis. It is more probable that G. bochenskii sp. n. was an element of the megafaunal open woodlands (forest-steppe/mosaic biotopes or open forests; SPASSOV 2003) complex, which included numerous fossil taxa. These included the land tortoises, felids, viverids, canids, bovids, equids, rhinoceroses, etc., generally similar in composition to the present day African open/forested savannah.
