Description: | Palaeospondylus gunni is a small fish, which usually measures less than 5cm long. The skull and spine are well-preserved. The fossil is black because these parts have been replaced by carbon. Some experts believe that Palaeospondylus is the juvenile (young) form of a lung fish, but no one knows for sure. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | fossils natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
