Semionotus tenuiceps

By Fossildude19

Front half of the early Neopterygian fish Semionotus tenuiceps from the early Jurassic (Hettangian)Shuttle Meadow Formation of Connecticut.

This fish needs some prep, but appears to have the entire skull present.

This is identified as an S. tenuiceps by the large "hump" directly behind the skull.

I believe this is the only identifiable example of this fish in my collection.
