Kolya Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hello! Help please to identify this fossil. I think that it is something from fish... Lenght ~ 1-1,5 mm. Probably Middle Miocene. Western Ukraine. Thanks in advance! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Dente Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I'm pretty sure this is a fish fin spine. I find almost identical ones in Eocene deposits that I search through. The ones I find almost have an enamel like coating with the unusual pattern on it. I wish I knew what kind of fish it is from. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it is a mantis shrimp claw fragment. Look at this thread-https://www.thefossilforum.com/topic/139680-tiniest-jaw/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
