Here is a rare specimen of a fossil fish and huge jaws. This is Knightia eocaena from the Green River Formation. This specimen exhibits very good detail. The bone structure is nice, the fins are intact, and the scale pattern and eye socket are easily seen. The fish has excellent orangish-brown color and contrasts beautifully with the cream-colored matrix. But there is also a HUGE SET OF JAWS WITH LARGE TEETH preserved on the plate. This is a very impressive fossil from the Green River Formation.
