Here is a wonderful specimen of Lycoptera sp. from the Jurassic of China. This specimen is quite large for the type and exhibits superb detail - the bone structure is extremely well defined, and the fins and tail are nicely displayed. The rusty-brown color of the fish is totally natural and contrasts beautifully with the light grey matrix. The fossil is well presented on the large plate of shale that contains part of another fish and a plant fossil on the back side! This is a beautiful example of this Jurassic fish from China.
