For the identification of the North European platform below the Western Carpathian Flysch belt and for the definition of the lithospheric and crustal relationships in the collisional zone between the Western Carpathian block and the North European platform, two migrated reflection seismic profiles with deep registration were chosen in the eastern sector of the Western Carpathians. Both of them were newly reprocessed (1999-2000), deep and composite seismic profiles, which define some new features in the geological structure in the eastern part of the Western Carpathians. From a general point of view, both seismic profiles are dominated by a fanwise (flowerlike) structure. However, we define this structure as fanwise, because in many features, it looks like a classic flower structure. The described fanwise structure has a great impact on the final form of the collisional zone. The impact of the fanwise structure is also clearly visible on both seismic sections in the area of the Inner Carpathian Paleogene basin. The Inner Carpathian Paleogene basin base dips moderately toward the Pieniny Klippen Belt in the northeast, and according to our interpretation of seismic lines, the Inner Carpathian Paleogene basin sedimentary package is divided into three or four structural levels (the oldest level is built up by basal Paleogene sediments, and the overlying folded Sambron Member beds consist of two structural levels and three structural levels [our opinion] of sediments; see mainly seismic section AB below). What is very interesting is that the uppermost level of the Sambron Member beds displays clear extensional features.
