博物館級のコレクター向けプレート:Monjurosuchus & 化石カメ - 動物化石 - Monjurosuchus and Manchurochelys - 47 cm - 43 cm

Association Plate: Monjurosuchus & Fossil Turtle - Early Cretaceous Matrix Description Species: Monjurosuchus sp. & Fossil Turtle (Manchurochelys / Ordosemys group) Age: Early Cretaceous (Jehol Biota, approx. 120–125 Million Years Old) Origin: Liaoning Province, China Matrix Dimensions: Approx. 43 cm x 47 cm (Slab size) Monjurosuchus sp. Size: 42 cm (straight-line measurement) Manchurochelys Size: 17 cm (straight-line measurement) Item Overview: A visually striking association slab featuring two representative aquatic/semi-aquatic reptiles of the famous Jehol Biota: a Monjurosuchus (a Choristodere reptile commonly known as the "Manchurian crocodile") alongside an ancient freshwater turtle. Key Features & Highlights: Dual Specimen Composition: Displays both a reptile skeleton and a turtle fossil together on a single matrix slab, showing the diverse aquatic ecosystem of the Early Cretaceous period. Detailed Preservation: Clear skeletal articulation on the Monjurosuchus (skull, ribcage, limbs) and visible shell/limb elements on the accompanying turtle specimen. Aesthetic Appeal: Strong color contrast between the dark organic fossilized elements and the beige limestone matrix. Measures approx. 43 cm x 47 cm , making it an ideal size for display racks or vitrines. Condition: Nicely prepped specimen slab. The specimen is natural; some bones have undergone restoration, accounting for 5% of the total. Please review all high-resolution photos with the metric ruler for exact proportions, natural fractures, and surface details.
