Frank Menser Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 (edited) Coelacanths aren't the easiest thing to find (nor the cheapest). Ran into this one a small (5") Triassic Diplurus newarki (from New Jersey - who would have guessed? ) Not the most articulated specimen, but (I think) interesting none the less.

Nicholas Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Looks like a great specimen to me, articulated or not I'd love to have one. Apparently Coelabanth fossils can be found in my province although I do not know the formation age. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Dactyll Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Frank.... well spotted.... will you mount that to something and reconstruct it.... If done properly and the rock re- shaped, you could 'emphasize' the outline on the infil section of the missing bit... Im sure this could be done mounted so the pieces could be removed if you want to... I think its great.....Thanks for sharing it.... Cheers Steve... And Welcome if your a New Member...
