From the album: Fossildude's Late Triassic Lockatong Formation Fossils
This skull will need to be prepared to find out what it is. It looks a bit too narrow to be from Diplurus newarki, (although, it could be) . It could also possibly be from the early ray finned fish, Turseodus sp. or Synorichthys sp., which are known from the same strata. Newark Supergroup, Newark Basin, Late Triassic, Lockatong Formation.

A pair of fish on one small slab. I believe the ray-finned fish is either Synorichthys sp. or Turseodus sp. You can see the body of a Diplurus newarki just below the other fish scales. Late Triassic, (Rhaetian) Lockatong Formation, Newark Supergroup, North Bergen, New Jersey.© © 2015 Tim Jones

An article you might find interesting…... http://www.alaskapublic.org/2013/09/18/thalattosaur-fossil-discovered-near-kake-may-be-new-species/ I first heard of Thalattosaurus when I read a book about prehistoric reptiles from California, and I didn't know that Mesozoic marine reptiles inhabited the waters off the Pacific Coast of the US until I read about where Shastasaurus has been found. The discovery of a thalattosaur from Alaska shows that North American thalattosaurs roamed the Pacific Coast as far north as Alaska.
