Fossildude19 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hello, and welcome to the Forum. #1 and #2 are the fish Vinctifer comptoni. Probably from the Cretaceous Santana Formation, in Brazil. #3 looks like a multiple block of Tharrias araripis, most likely from the Ceara Formation . #4 could be a curled and flattened Vinctifer comptoni, again, probably from the Ceara Formation. Maybe @oilshale will weigh in.

marcopolo Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 Thank you so much @Fossildude19 ! I will post more for identification soon. All these beautiful fossils have been in the cellar of my grandmother's house for too long without knowing what they are. Best, Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
