Nimravis Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) @stats, @fiddlehead, @Mark Kmiecik, @deutscheben, @connorp @RCFossils and any other member. Here is a piece that I cannot put my finger on and don’t recall seeing one before. Any help would be appreciated.

stats Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 A blade? @jdp is working on cleaning them up. He should have an interesting opinion. Cheers, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deutscheben Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Yeah, that’s a very intriguing one, could be a differently preserved Esconichthys or could be another kind of baby fish or tetrapod. Exciting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFossils Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 This is definitely an odd one. I am also getting a tetrapod vibe. The head shape is a bit off from a typical Esconichthys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimravis Posted July 11, 2022 Author Share Posted July 11, 2022 @deutscheben and @RCFossils thanks- and I agree it is very odd looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digit Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Hoping that Jack spots this one and comments. Could it be a young Esconichthys? It looks so wide for something that short. Interesting piece. Cheers. -Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoast Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 This is a wonderful find! Can you get a close up image of the middle part of the right image in the first pic? There appears to be linear feature there.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kmiecik Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 My first thought was squashed Esconichthys, and I also noticed the interesting "spinal" feature. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
