Shrimp Ambilobeia Madagscar #3

Here we offer  a rare and nice fossil shrimp called Ambilobeia karojoi. It was found in the lower triassic layers  (Karoo Formation) of Ambilobe, Madagascar.

This specimen was found as a nodule and when split open revealed the stunning fossil crustacean within. The detail of preservation is superb for this genre and the quarter-of-a-billion year age. No dyes or colorants have been applied -- this is a 100% "as found" specimen.

Both sides of the nodule are unbroken, they measure about 4,5 x 2,5 cm.

No manipulations at all - donÂŽt miss out this one!
