Fossile - Matrice fossile - Mixosaurus Tail - 17 cm - 10 cm
This is a great Mixosaurus tail. The Mixosaurus is a kind of ichthyosaur. This piece is cleaned with sandblasting technology, so the fossil can appear more three-dimensional, and many parts can be preserved, which like teeth are also very three-dimensional, lifelike feeling. This fossil has been cleaned very beautifully, and the bones are very distinct from the matrix.
The size of the fossil is 14.5 cm. Matrix is about 17*10*0.5 cm.
Mixosaurus was a small to medium-sized ichthyosaur, not growing more than 2 metres (6.6 ft) in total length with small species not growing more than 1 metre (3.3 ft). It possessed a long tail with a low fin, suggesting it could have been a slow swimmer, but also possessed a dorsal fin for stability in the water. The paddle-like limbs were made up of five toes each, unlike the three toes found in later Ichthyosaurs.
