Moroccan Cretaceous fish

[FossilSloth]

I was told this fish nodule came from the Anti-Atlas region of Morocco, and is supposedly Cretaceous in age. Can anyone ID it?

A lovely specimen. 

I believe it is from Goulmima, which is at the foot of the Atlas mountains. 

The fish is known as Goulmimites sp. but whether that's scientifically valid, i have no idea.

Thanks, guys! I have 2 more nodules to prep. A lot of the brown stuff flaked off this one... Any tips on how to prevent that? I think as soon as I uncover a part, I'm going to have to cover it in glue. Gonna be really slow.

I'm just trying to play catch up after spending time at the Tucson Show. I'm just curious, what are those nodules in the fish's body cavity? Just mineral deposits? Is that something normal from that area?
