Shark vertebra


deltav2

Shark vert found in midra shale fm. of Qatar, middle eocene. Vertebras are rare to find, even regular fish vertebras, and they usually come in the 5mm - 2mm size range, so something this big is very rare. Despite being recovered directly from the matrix it was embedded in, it was still broken, so that means it was broken prior to fossilisation. Also this was associated in the same matrix piece with the cylindracanthus rostrum I found previously, which you can see in my gallery.
