Fossildude19 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 It looks like a typically nice example. I just wish they wouldn't coat them with whatever they do, unless it is necessary for preservation. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

It needs to be said, that coating is very necessary, since a lot of them are preserved in a coaly manner. In a lot of cases the body outline is very well preserved. So it is not sure, if that what you see is coating or the body outline (i think it is body-outline) - close-up photos would help to clarify. Second, the fossil is not Branchiosaurus sp., if from permian age. Branchiosaurus sp. is found only in Carbon, not in Permian. The Permian critters belonging to Apateon sp. or Melanerpeton sp.. I would think yours belonging to Apateon sp. and i guess it is from Saar-Nahe Basin in Germany. This is the usual quality you'll find these critters. IMO no red flags here. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/288675252_Biostratigraphie_des_Rotliegend_mit_Insekten_und_Amphibien https://www.researchgate.net/publication/323755742_Earliest_nursery_ground_of_temnospondyl_amphibians_in_the_Permian 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
