I found this Green River fish this fall while at the Warfield quarry.  It is too different from a Knightia and the best match I could find is Amphiplaga brachyptera.  Thoughts?5e2e776c71dfc_Amphiplagabrachyptera.thumb.JPG.e299ab8b7502b40426ff6e2653304ef4.JPG

I agree with the other comments, I found one back in 2013 when I first went out west. Had the same well preserved skin impressions and the same fins.
