Manticocerasman Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 We recently moved to a new house, so It has been quite a busy few weeks since we last made a field trip. So I hadn’t much time to post the recent finds. On our last fieldtrip to the Belgian Late Devonian I made an exceptional find that I still wanted to share: I found a large piece of bone sticking out of a nodule. After the preparation and a some research I ‘suspected that the piece was a ADL (anterior dorsal lateral) armor plate from a Dunkleosteus. I’ve sent the pictures to a friend Palaeontologist specialised in Palaeozoic fish who confirmed the ID. Dunkleosteus sp. (ADL) Frasnian Chimay Belgium 3 16 growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
