That is the correct book.  Those fish seem to have been more likely to preserve the scales than the others.  Rare to find that on the other NSR species.  You got lucky that half of this fish was torn open creating that vert display.  Awesome.

Adding this to say yes, those are fish scales.  See my picture I attached for an example to show you that they are (these are from N. Texas, but not the NSR and it has verts running through the middle as well).

Re: the book from DPS, the guidebook that is, it is a great starter book.  Sometimes I wished it had better pictures though.  Lyla

Fossils are simply one of the coolest things on earth--discovering them is just marvelous! Makes you all giddy inside!
