Summary

Description
Deutsch: Thrissops cf. formosus, Ichthyodectidae; Jura-Museum Eichstätt, Deutschland (48°53′38.36″N 11°10′14.45″E / 48.8939889°N 11.1706806°E / 48.8939889; 11.1706806). Die Schuppen zeigen die durch Melanin erzeugten Zeichnungsmuster in Originalfärbung. Ebenso sind Muskeln und Teile des Verdauungstraktes zu erkennen. Dies ist eines der weltweit am besten erhaltenen Fischfossilien. Fotografiert während einer Sonderausstellung im Staatlichen Museum für Naturkunde Karlsruhe (49°0′26.63″N 8°24′0.32″E / 49.0073972°N 8.4000889°E / 49.0073972; 8.4000889)
English: Thrissops cf. formosus, Ichthyodectidae; Upper Jurassic, Tithonium, Ettling, Bavaria, Germany; Jura-Museum Eichstätt, Germany (48°53′38.36″N 11°10′14.45″E / 48.8939889°N 11.1706806°E / 48.8939889; 11.1706806). The scales show the original colour pattern, induced by melanin. In addition, one can see muscles and parts of the gastrointestinal tract. This is one of the best conserved fossil fishes worldwide. Photo taken when on loan in an exposition in the Staatliches Museum für Naturkunde Karlsruhe (49°0′26.63″N 8°24′0.32″E / 49.0073972°N 8.4000889°E / 49.0073972; 8.4000889)
