This is one fierce-looking fossil fish! It is a very distinct Eurypholis boisseri Viperfish from the Cretaceous Layers of Lebanon. Fossils from this region have become increasingly difficult to obtain due to political unrest. This sleek specimen is a Viperfish, one of the most predatory fish in the fossil record. The fish is complete and wonderfully preserved in a diving pose. The mouth is full of large teeth that are easily seen and, frankly, unmistakable. The fish is well displayed on the large, rectangular plate of sublithographic limestone that also includes a second fossil fish. This is a very displayable specimen of this carniverous fossil fish - easily one the most sought-after fossil fish from Lebanon.
