Don't know if it helps, but that's the one I have in my collection, although isn't labeled. :)

Welcome to the Club of those who are looking for ID for these fish from Madagascar my friend abyssunder! :D

Is It real, or it's not real, that's the question!

I am kind of having sympathy to the people of Madagascar.  The poor people may earn some money to support their living by polishing the dinosaur bones (in their eyes, it's just rock, no different from other rocks).  Of course, it destroys the scientific value of the bones.  I also got one nice vertebra of dinosaur from Madagascar and luckily it's not polished.

 

Mind you though, the dinosaur bones from Madagascar have a higher than background radiation.  I measured the radiation with a Geiger counter.  The background radiation is 0.1-0.2 (also for my Keichousaurus) but the bone from Madagascar is 1.8.

Morrison Formation is hot too. I once worked a Morrison Formation quarry that was something like 40 times background.

I just see a few very nice not polished dinosaur vertebrae from Madagascar from a seller in China.  It is more common that the bones are made into a ball or ashtrays.
