Placoderm donation

Recommended Posts

Today I went to the "Belgian institute of natural history" to donate my placoderm that I found in Oktober.

 

It is verry likely that it is a new species :D, but only time will tel. The local placoderm specialist wil work on this specimen for the description.

Wowie! Really cool fish (and a big one, too!) Keep us up to date on the description! :bone:

Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such.

Very nice find and two thumbs up for donating to science. :dinothumb::dinothumb:

 

Hope it is described as a new species and you help name it.

Absolutely. It is not uncommon that some institutions can take several years to get through a backlog of donations!
