Products description

Here is a rare Magila latimana from the classical site of Zandt.
Magila latimana does have only a very thin carapace that is in most cases very bleach preserved. The most finds of a Magila latimana with rich contrast like this piece are been found at the quarry of Zandt.  The fossil is also nicely centred on a attractive plate with the typical Zandt grain patterns. It is unlikely to obtain any new finds from the Zandt Quarry today.

The fossil is about 44 mm long.
