Fossil fish from Scotland

[sjaak]

Hello all,

 

Here are some finds from this spring near Thurso, Scotland. Fish from the Devonian (Old Red Sandstone). None of them is perfect, but these are the more complete ones, but I find it difficult to identify them. The fish are compressed a bit disintegrated or decomposed and the details, especially near the head, are hard to distinguish.  I suspect Osteolepis panderi ? I have another box full to prep so who knows what will pop up.

 

Regards,

 

Niels
