Al Dente Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 You are right that it comes from a bony fish but I don't think you will be able to determine a species. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 It's a nice piece, but i agree that bony fish is as far as we'll get. 1 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankh8147 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Yep, 'bony fish' is about as far as I can see for an ID but at least you have it narrowed down to that. Nice find!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hemipristis Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 definitely bony fish, as frank said, but hard to ID beyond that. I can say with relative assurance that it is not drum, tuna, billfish, puffer, or barracuda. Beyond that...? 'Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.'

Darko Posted April 11, 2018 Author Share Posted April 11, 2018 Thanks @hemipristis I would rather say that is from a lake fish in that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darko Posted April 11, 2018 Author Share Posted April 11, 2018 Maybe bass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.N.FossilmanLithuania Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I don't know about bass but if the vertebra is Late Mesozoic- Cenozoic in age then it should be ray finned fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
