Lot 1176
100 Million Year Old Viper Fish And Shrimp From Lebanon. Some of the most beautifully-preserved fossils are found in the 100 million year old fossil beds of Hajoula, Lebanon. The first of the two slabs is a complete 4 ¾" long Viper Fish Europholis. Its orange-brown color is nicely contrasted by the lighter cream-colored matrix and the small intricate details are present including some of its small sharp teeth and interesting ventral circular protective plates. The second 5" x 4" plate contains three complete and one partial shrimp, Carponenaeus. The detail on these brown shrimp is amazing with their translucent shell, delicate legs and antennae and red eyes. Both fossil plates are contained in a 12" x 8" Ryker mount. Add $20.
Estimated Value $300 - 400.
