As the picture shows - I found this fossil 2002 in the afternoon, minutes before I finished work as a gardener - I cleaned the plant areas in Havixbeck - a smalltown at the base of the " Baumberge" in Westfalia - Germany. I lived there for 2 and a half years. In this time I collected there some nice fossils of Campanian age. ....but I never found a fish in the fossil - quarries. They are very rare but since the medieval time known and discriped, then forgotten in the last 200 years there had been found some fishes, nearby less than 100 pieces in the quarries at the Baumberge. Some km far away in Sendenhorst they found fish fossils too. They are very similar to the fossils from Santana Formation in Brasil and the Fossils from Lebanon. Is there anybody who can give the little fish a name?
