The Mixosaurus is a kind of ichthyosaur. This piece is cleaned with Air Engraving Pen, 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. Except the tail is missing a little bit, tts limbs and gastralia are very complete, which is very rare. This is a whole ichthyosaur! The size of the fossil is 73 cm. Matrix is about 56*59*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.
