Ptycholepis marshi Newberry tail.

By Fossildude19

Ptycholepis marshi Newberry.

Early Jurassic, (Hettangian)

Shuttle Meadow Fm. Hartford Basin, Connecticut.

This is one of the more rare fish found in the Newark Supergroup.

I more commonly find disarticulated scales.

There is a very thin layer of shale over the caudal fins, and part of the body as well.

Needs prep by air abrasion.
