Specimen: Diplomystus dentatus
Location: Kemmerer, Wyoming
Period: Eocene
Formation: Green River Formation
Dimensions:

fish 90 mm; matrix 140 x 140 mm

Item: fish-1-diplo C10
Price: $ 25

       Featured is a pretty fossil fish. Note that the brown spots are fossilized scales from the fish.  Related to today’s shad, Diplomystus was likely the primary food source for many of the lake’s predatory fish.  Some Diplomystus fossil specimens are very large, however this 3 inch specimen is just right for a shelf display. 

     This specimen was obtained from an old collection.  I cannot relate the history of this particular piece.

     The pictures illustrate the quality of this piece.

Flat Rate Shipping in the US is $9 shipping World Wide is $20.00
