Large example of Fossil fish Lycoptera sp. from China This is a nice specimenThese fish were abundant in fresh water in present day China during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. They are typically found in the preserved sediments and often in groups. This specimen has a complete fossil on one side and two almost complete skeletons on the reverse together with a partial. The whole slice measures 24cm x 20cm at the widest points. A lovely example of the species and a nice group of specimens.
