Mioplosus_Lover24 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I bought a small fossil collection that contained several Erismatopterus levatus and it also contained several unidentifiable and unlabeled items, in particular this piece. It reminds me almost of a placoderm skull plate, but I honestly don't have any idea. There's area of denticles on the side of the fossil.

fossilnut Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Looks like a pufferfish (Tetradontidae) gill cover plate. Find them in the old Lee Creek mine in NC. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
