Fossildude19 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 This looks like it may be a Rhacolepis buccalis. Tharrias araripis, Probably from the Cretaceous Santana Formation , Ceara, Brazil. Unfortunately, is has split down the middle of the fossil. To make the fossil more marketable, they have carved out the outline of a fish, though not very realistically. Regards, EDIT: Thanks for the Correction, @Carl ! Must've been having a senior moment. 3 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Carl Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Not Rhacolepis, but maybe Tharrias from the same time and place. But yeah, that "enhancement" kills it for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
