Complete bigger Sclerocephalus

Here we have a complete permian amphibian called Sclerocephal hÀuseri. It was found in Odernheim/Pfalz, Germany. The animal measures about 41 cm. The matrix is original and measures around 60 x 31 x 2 cm. It was broken several times and is repaired professionally. On the back side of the slab there are two hangings to make it easy hanging the fossil on a wall.

The skull measures about 11 cm. It`s preservation is excellent. Even the lower jaw and many teeth are present. Unfortunately the body-part is a little disarticulated, but nevertheless the animal itself is nearly complete. All bones are original, nothing was reconstructed! In addition to that this Sclerocephalus is defenetly one individual and not - as sometimes is the case - made of several animals.

Since many years it is strictly forbidden to dig in that location. ThatÂŽs the reason why these kind of fossils become pretty rare and are hard to get. This one comes from an old collection.
