Lot 835
55 Million Year Old Minnow Mortality Plate From the Green River. The small fish Gosiutichthys parvus was an extinct member of the minnow family and was the favorite fish eaten by many other Green River fish. There are more than 60 1"-2" fish on this 12"x9" sea-bottom, stone-matrix slab. These mass mortality plates are no longer available as the quarry where they were found has been closed. Most of the small brown fish are complete with excellent detail, down to the tiny vertebrae. This is an opportunity to acquire a very interesting and different fossil fish plate rarely offered. Add $20 for domestic shipping.
Estimated Value $300 - 500.
