Henry's Collection


Sinopaleus

Recommended Posts

Hello all! Thank you for checking out my collection, and I hope you have enjoyed it - or at least might enjoy. :) This is my entire collection, and I update this thread every time I get a new fossil. I do also have my own website (currently still a work in progress), with more precise information and more pictures of the things you see here. Anyways, I hope you enjoy my fossils! ^_^ Any questions regarding them? Don't hesitate to shoot me a PM ;)

Here is my first fossil to post in this thread, and one of my best indeed! :)

What a wonderful menagerie! Who would believe that such as register lay buried in the strata? To open the leaves, to unroll the papyrus, has been an intensely interesting though difficult work, having all the excitement and marvelous development of a romance. And yet the volume is only partly read. Many a new page I fancy will yet be opened. -- Edward Hitchcock, 1858

Formerly known on the forum as Crimsonraptor

yeap. just take away the sit and the saurus and vuala :P

since that this specimen is a bit larger than the others, it's probably a female, so bell's short for belinda :D

hahaha naww i just made those up just now :P but the female part's true.
