Abstract
In central Scania, a channel eroded in Silurian strata is filled with Upper Triassic sediments in its western part while its eastern part is filled with Quaternary sediments only. The channel must therefore have been formed before or during the Upper Triassic. It may have been formed as early as the Early Permian after regional erosion and peneplanation. The channel is cut off across the Eslöv Trough, a prolongation of the Fyledal Fault zone, and downfaulted 50–75 m west of the trough. More notably, its western part is displaced c. 4 km to the SSE along a fault which appear to be a prolongation of the Fyledal Fault zone.
