Multiple Knightia Fish
The unusual chemistry of this region has led to Fossil Lake having the highest concentration of articulated fish fossils anywhere in the world, hence a collection of fish on one piece of limestone.
This species is thought to be distantly related to modern-day herrings and sardines.
Eocene age, circa 50 million years old.
Each full fish is approximate 6cm long. The matrix (surrounding rock) is 10cm x 8cm x 0.5cm .
Measurements are approximate and the minimum size you should expect your fossil to be.
Price includes a small display stand.
