5.9" Permian Amphibian (Micromelerpeton) Plate - Pfalz, Germany

This is an incredible fossil amphibian (Micromelerpeton) plate. These are very well preserved amphibian. Areas of skin, legs, and hands/feet can be clearly seen. The shale it is preserved on measures 9.6" x 7.6" and has been backed with fiberglass for stability. A thin sealant has been applied to the carbonized fossil to protect it,

The fossil beds of Pfalz in southwestern Germany have yielded many spectacular Permian fossils for many years, but this location has been closed to collecting for decades - making such specimens increasingly rare on the market. The Rotliegendes series of mud and siltstones is renowned for its abundant fish and amphibian fossils and this stunning assemblage is a perfect representation of aquatic life that thrived in the area 285 million years ago.

It comes with an acrylic display stand.
