A Monster Eocene Fossil Fish Phareodus Encaustus from Wyoming

Description

I am offering a very large
Phareodus encaustus
that was
quarried from the 18 inch layer of our private quarry located in Lincoln County, Wyoming. The Eocene age Limestone sediments of the Fossil Butte Member of the Green River Formation are world renowned for the quality and diversity of the entombed fauna. This species,
Phareodus
encaustus
,
is related to the modern
Pirhana'
. A mouth full of needle like teeth are visible in the mouth. Both Pectoral fins are visible. The scales and fin preservation are amazing! Some of the body scales forward of the anal fin have slipped from the skeleton. This specimen has been prepared in our own labs. This fish measures 21
1/4 inches on limestone matrix measuring 16 3/4 x 28 x 1 inches and weighs 24 lbs. The stone has been backed with plywood and epoxy! Shipping costs are anywhere in the continental USPS Fed Ex Home Delivery
. NO RESTORATION!
