Help identify

[kathrynjenine]

Any ideas on what kind of fish this is? Where it's from or any information would be appreciated

The size of the fossils is a very useful indication during an identification, such as the place of its origin and its age. I invite you to read my last link in my signature. If you don’t have a rule, print out the document I made available, and put your fossils on it before you take your pictures

Nice fish fossil @kathrynjenine! I believe that this could be a Knightia from the split fish layer of the Green River Formation, but I could be wrong. These members should be able to help with it: @Ptychodus04 @RJB.

It looks to be from Green River fm., but I'm too far from that place. 

[Ptychodus04]

Yep. Those are Knightia eocaena from the Green River Formation.

 

Typical preservation and rounded style of preparation from the mini-fish layer.

And bodies… very typical for these fish.
