Fish found in North Sulphur River


acme

Recommended Posts

I found this fish in a gravel bar of the North Sulphur River (Texas).

 

It shows the scales on both sides and the vertebra on each end.  

You can also see good definition of the fins at the bottom.

 

==> Wishing the head was still attached !

 

Has anyone seen anything like this in the NSR ?

 

Thanks,

Mike

I have seen something like this before from NSR. Several articulated verts with some fins and scales still attached. 

 

Great find!
