This is an excellent fossil fish. It is a complete Knightia humilis from the Green River Formation of Wyoming. This classic fossil fish is extremely well preserved and exhibits great detail. The eye socket is easily seen, and the fins are beautifully displayed. The dark-colored fish contrasts wonderfully with the cream-colored matrix. The fossil herring is almost perfectly centered on the rectangular plate of shale. This is a very fine example of Knightia humilis from the famous Fossil Lake Deposits of Wyoming.
