Sculpted Stone

This is a fabulous fossil fish. It is a large Priscacara serrata from the Green River Formation of Wyoming. This classic type is very sought-after because of its recognizable look - similar to a modern-day Bluegill or Crappie. This fossil was extracted under a microscope to reveal the extremely fine detail. The textbook large dorsal fin is beautifully displayed on this specimen. The other fins, backbone, tail, and other bones are all well showcased and very easily seen. And, best of all, the fish is perfectly centered on the rectangular plate of matrix - and it has been professionally framed! This is an excellent display example of a Priscacara fossil fish.

A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
