Description from the seller

Replica Pterosaur – Pterodactylus kochi
Cast from Original Fossil – Upper Jurassic – Solnhofen Limestone, Germany

This listing features a high-quality replica of Pterodactylus kochi, an early species of pterosaur, the group of prehistoric flying reptiles that lived during the age of the dinosaurs. The cast has been precisely reproduced from an original fossil discovered in the world-famous Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany, which dates back to the Upper Jurassic period, approximately 150 million years ago.

The specimen is beautifully detailed, capturing the fine bone structure and iconic elongated skull of this extinct creature. It is an ideal collector’s item for fossil enthusiasts, paleontology educators, or museums seeking scientifically accurate representations without the fragility or cost of an original fossil.

The replica is in excellent condition and is presented on a clear display stand. A label is affixed on the reverse side for reference.
