This study presents a synthesis of currently available data on the distribution of Cenomanian-age palaeodrainage systems in the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin, filled by fluvial and estuarine strata, and an interpretation of their relationships to the basement units and fault systems. Much of the progress, compared to previous studies, was made possible by a recent basin-scale evaluation of Cenomanian genetic sequence stratigraphy. Several local palaeodrainage systems developed in the basin, separated by drainage divides of local importance and one major divide – the Holice-Nové Město Palaeohigh – which separated the drainage basins of the Tethyan and Boreal palaeogeographic realms.
