Hi everyone! I'm back with another weird Kem Kem bone. I wasn't sure what to make of this thing at first. A buddy even suggested Crinoid at one point. The closest I can find is a gill plate of a giant fresh water coelacanth. Because apparently that was a thing. The pictures I've been seeing are all from Mawsonia though I'm wondering if I'm 1. on the right track and 2. if it can be IDed as Mawsonia or if in typical Kem Kem fashion there were a bunch of these things swimming around that all had a plate that looks like this. The bone is about 16.5 cm by 15.2 cm with 17.8 cm as the longest measurement and up to 1.4 cm thick. So what do you all think?

Dear Guys, I recently found these two scale fragments of lobe finned fishes in Joniskis district, Northern Lithuania. One larger scale has thick radii in top, many perforations in the mid part and sharp spines in the bottom, the other find is the bottom fragment of scale and has vertical ridges and grooves between them. One of important things about second find is protuberant points in the internal surface of scale fragment. Please help to identify families or similar fish taxa of these finds to know the age. Any help will be appreciated! Best Regards Domas
