description  
We at Fossils Direct are very proud to offer this superb, very large, piece of ichthyosaur from the world famous locality of Street. It is almost impossible to obtain material from this locality nowadays. This specimen consists of vertebrae which have been naturally halved and crystals are growing in between each vertebrae. The ribcage is wonderful and has part of its last meal preserved as black organic material which in itself is exceptionally rare!! This is a piece for the serious collector and would make a magnificent display specimen or centre piece. This specimen comes with a perspex stand, emabling easy display. Please note that this is a large and heavy piece. Super sized images can be viewed in Showcase fossils and further images can be provided on request.
