Name : Eubiodectes
Age : Cretaceous - Cenomanian
Findspot : Hakel , Lebanon
Dimensions : 68×20×2 cm
Poids : 3.5 kg

I picked it up from a high grade collection I recently bought (estate sale).
The fish itself measures 64 cm and is well centered onto a 68 x 20 cm slab. The slab has been brocken during digging work as digging conditions in Lebanon made that usual. Anyway it has been professionnaly reglued and skillfully prepared.
