Description

Enchodus Fish Skull (260210o)

Species: Enchodus lybicus

Age: Cretaceous, 145 million years old

Location: Morocco

Enchodus is one of the most iconic predatory fish, known for their rows of razor-sharp teeth, specifily their two large front teeth perfectly designed for eating other fish. This feature helped them earn the nickname, “the saber tooth herring”. This is a great display piece that shows off those front chompers as well as more than a dozen others. The model has been sealed and coated in plaster on the back side to help maintain its shape and prevent the soft sandstone from crumbling with age.

Offer includes name plate, stand, and Certificate of Authenticity.

What our customers say

I have been a customer of Stones & Bones for many years and have purchased quite a few of their fossils. Richard, and now, Avery, are a pleasure to work with, answering all of my questions, warning me about fakes being sold elsewhere, how to know if a fossil is authentic, and happily sending me information on each fossil to help me determine if it's a piece I wish to add to my collection. I have referred friends and family to Stones & Bones, over the years, and all have been pleased with both their interactions and purchases. I highly recommend Stones & Bones.
