Here is a very nice specimen of a rare fossil fish from the Eocene of Wyoming. This is Amphiplaga brachyptera from the Green River Formation. Only a handful of these fish are found each year. This specimen exhibits very fine detail. The bone structure is superb, the fins are intact, and the open mouth is easily seen. The fish has excellent orangish-brown color and contrasts beautifully with the cream-colored matrix. The fossil is well showcased on the semi-oval plate of shale. This is a very nice specimen of this highly uncommon fish.
