SawTooth Posted November 17, 2024 Posted November 17, 2024 I bought this fish last weekend from a college museum's gift shop, Im assuming it's real due to the college which it was bought from and the condition of the fish, as of the ~30 fish (all the same species(I think)) this one was probably the best condition. It was only labeled as green river fish, so I'm assuming knightia, as from what I've seen that seems to be the most common fish in the formation. Thoughts? Thanks.

Fossildude19 Posted November 17, 2024 Posted November 17, 2024 Looks like a typical Knightia eocaena.
