These three fish specimens are a little harder to see in the pictures but if you tilt the fossils just right you can see the outlines much better.

These were only labeled "fish" so I have not researched the species of fish found thus far in Argentina. Out of context you would really have to look hard to see the fossils. Please let me know if I should shoot these a bit differently?

Um, ... this is not a fish fossil.  :unsure: 

It is a broken piece of sandstone. 

I don't see the morphology that would indicate fish, in any way.

 

Many of your other items are questionable as well. 

You should post them in fossil ID to get more knowledgeable/accurate IDs.

Thank you for you comment, I will retake the pic to see if I can get the outline any better or take it down. I am going by the manifest of the collection and although it was 1920's, the pieces were given as lures to invest in the digs. I assumed because I could see the outline of the fish and it was labeled fish.... I will post the items that I do not have ID's for and leave out the ones that look like rocks to me.
