description |
|
Apart from the Stethacanthid shark tooth, there are also Petrodus patelliforme shark remains including dermal denticles. The detail is magnificent, especially under magnification. All the shark remains from this quarry were identified by Gilles Cunny, a Carboniferous shark expert. The quarry has been abandoned for over 60 years now and heavily overgrown. This specimen was collected in 1959 and resided in the late Professor GORDON WALKDEN collection. Approximately 345 million years old. Fossils Direct is a premium collectors website. |
