autismoford Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I just added this wonderful specimen to my collection. The species is discosauriscus. Little is known about the species other than the fact that they were predators based off of teeth. They may of had electrospective organs. On this slab running through the head of the specimen is a thick calcite seam from where the rock was faulted and shifted. This was found in the Czech Rebublic in the Limnic Deposits. This is the first fossil I've purchased all the others in my collection I have found. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Nice one. That's really quite unique with the calcite vein running through. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
