This is a nice example of Mioplosus labracoides from the Eocene of Wyoming. This large fossil fish exhibits very nice bone structure - the eye socket is present, and the backbone is easily seen. The orange-brown fossil contrasts nicely with the cream-colored matrix. The distinct fish is well showcased on the semi-rectangular plate of shale. This is a very nice specimen of this uncommon fish from the Green River Shale.
