Three Nice Permian Branchiosaur (Amphibian) Fossils - Germany
This is a cluster of three fossil Branchiosaurs, a primitive amphibian during the Permian period, some 280 million years ago. Branchiosaurs were likely semi aquatic and represent one of first animals to move onto the land. It was collected from the Pfalz region of Germany. The region has been closed permanently to collecting for several decades, though there is a considerable number of these fossils on the market from previous collecting.
The largest of the three specimens is 3.2" long which is quite large for the species and they are all exceptionally detailed. The entire rock slab measures 11.8x7.5" and is backed with a resin/fiberglass composite for stability. Comes with a display stand.
