New fish plate - Gosiutichthys or Knightia? - Determined! Gosiutichthys parvus
Fossildude19 posted a topic in Fossil ID
I just received this multi fish plate in the mail yesterday. It was a bargain from our favorite auction site. Not quite sure if it is a plate of Gosiutichthys parvus, or Knightia eocaena. The description listed them as small Knightia sp. (eocaena, most likely), but I know many of the Green River fish on the auction site are mis-identified. The individual fish look like Gosiutichthys to me. The largest one on the plate is about 2.25 inches. They seem to have the upward mouth gape, and the dorsal fins appear to me to be a bit more anterior of the cent- 34 replies
