Asset Overview

Fossil actinopterygian fish (specimen number BIRUG 10210) from the Santana Formation (Early Cretaceous: Aptian–Albian) of Brazil. This formation is particularly noted for multiple species of exceptionally preserved fish and other fauna including invertebrates, amphibians, pterosaurs, crocodylomorphs and dinosaurs, often preserved in limestone nodules. This specimen was donated to the Lapworth Museum by Dr. M. P. Smith (1996), and was digitised by Andrew Jones using photogrammetry in Agisoft Photoscan.
