This is a real plate, but it is not a plate of Prolebias sp.  :unsure:

This looks like a US. plate of Knightia eocaena, or Gosiutichtys parvus.

Not a Prolebias and certainly not from France. As Tim already said probably Gosiutichthys parvus from the Green River Formation., Laney Shale Member (Eocene).

Be not ashamed of mistakes and thus make them crimes (Confucius, 551 BC - 479 BC).
