Fossil vert from Indonesia

Recommended Posts

Need some help with identifying this fish vertebrate, can this one be a tuna vert?

The size is a little bit more than 4 cm.

Fish vertebra are not usually diagnostic to genus/species level.

It does have a resemblance to one of the tunas, but I am not certain which one.  Could also be wahoo.  Reasonable to assume from the Scombridae.  I would label it "probably tuna".  Unsure of genus/species
