AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Name : Nematonotus longispinus
Age : Cretaceous - Cenomanian
Findspot : Hakel , Lebanon

The size of the fish is 11.5 cm onto a 16 x 11.6 cm slab. What makes this specimen very rare and unique is the preservation of the very long dorsal fin.
Please note the slab has been professionally glued one time. The digging conditions make that the fossils are found while breaking the slabs. They are then glued and the fossil became revealed after removing the rock.

The stand is not included

Seller's Story

Lithologia is a company specialized in the preparation and sale of fossils. My name is Laurent and I have been passionate about fossils since childhood. I created the company Lithologia many years ago now, and I have been active both in the field and in the preparation workshop for over 30 years. The company's showcase is the online sales site LITHOLOGIA_COM, which offers a selection of high-quality fossils, in different ranges, from specimens of systematics to museum pieces. Finally, and this is certainly one of my great pride, I prepare a good part of the fossils that I offer for sale myself. I buy them unprepared and I do the clearance work in my own laboratory by implementing the technique best suited to each specimen. My great experience in different preparation techniques allows me to verify with certainty the quality of the specimens that I offer.
