From the album: Holzmaden
These are four Ichthyosaur paddle bones from the lower Jurassic from the quarry Kromer near Holzmaden. The prep was very difficult because the stone was kinda hard. I gave it up several times but now its finally finished. I hitted the bones a few times so its not the nicest piece. Maybe I will try to prep it from the other side one day. Some more pictures: -

From the album: Holzmaden
This picture shows associated Ichthysaur bones from the quarry Kromer near Holzmaden (Lower Jurassic). It was found by me last year and was prepped by Roger (@Ludwigia). The prep work took about 10 hours. The associated vertebrae are around 13 cm long and at the maximum the piece is 20 cm long. Beside those vertebrae there are also Ichthyosaur ribs and Ichthyosaur paddle bones on the stone. Maybe it was a small Stenopterygius or a young one from another species. The vertebrae: The vertebrae and the ribs: The paddle bones: Some more detailed pictures: This piece is the best one in my collection until now and the vertebrate find of August 2017 !- 7 comments
