Offered is a large (17cm) and excellent example of the classic Middle Eocene fish Amphiperca multifrons (Barsch) from the world famous Messel Pit at Darmstadt, Germany.
Laterally reserved and transferred to a resin base in the time honoured way, this displayable specimen is complete with all dorsal and ventral spines intact, and pectoral, anal and tail fins all in fine preservation, this is an above average specimen for the serious collector. The skull is particularly impressive, with the jaws typically agape and with the operculum undisturbed.
The Messel pit has long been closed to collecting....................
Resin matrix approx.20cm X 11cm X 1cm.
Although I sell a very wide range of fossils from Pre- Cambrian to Pleistocene age, I specialize in trilobites from all over the globe and in particular, British species.
I collect regularly in the UK, with more than forty five years of fieldwork experience and probably the best working knowledge of British trilobite localities. I have a doctorate and a masters degree in trilobite taxonomy and British Palaeozoic stratigraphy and an Open University degree in Natural Sciences.
If you are an amateur collector, a more serious scientific collector, or an agent for an educational organization ( e.g College, University or Museum), I can supply materials to suit your needs! I also buy whole collections and trade materials too. Visits are welcome,by appointment only.
