The Green River Formation in Wyoming represents one of the largest and most important documented accumulations of sedimentary rocks in the world and dates from approximately 50 million years ago. It covers an area of more than 25,000 square miles and has an average of 6,000 meters thick. These lakes were formed by geological changes that elevated the Rocky Mountains in the early times. The climate was very different from the current desert climate, it was identical to the existing current subtropical climate of the Gulf Coast and the areas of the South Atlantic of the United States currently. Notogoneus osculus (osculus from the Latin 'mouth') was an opportunist spending most of its life in rivers that are connected and fed on flow to the inland lake only went into the Lake during certain seasons when when the bottom waters were nontoxic. As a result of this circumstance Notogoneus is uncommon and rare in the Green River formation. The usual size of this genus is around 18 inches (45.7 cm) and its maximum length is 3 feet (91 cm) small specimens are extremely rare. Notogoneus was a predatory creature and would have powered creatures at or near the bottom of its habitat, probably at night Notogoneus fed mainly on crustaceans. You could say that has certain similarities with a fish current modern suction cup. Genuine and original authentic fossil, giant fossil fish, plate prepared by professionals in the quarry of origin, mounted and reinforced on a wooden base for better exposure and protection, completely natural piece, no restoration , no repair, complete fish, out of size , measures plate-slab: 590 x 350 x 25 mm , measures fish : 450 x 95 mm (approximate measurements), weight: 8.700 grams, excellent museum quality, veryrare , collector's choice , gorgeous.

Mioplosus labracoides is an extinct fish with a long and strong body similar in appearance to a current perch (carp). According to the fossil remains found, it had sharp teeth that show that it was a voracious and lethal predator. He often ate other fish with a size of up to half his own length, which resulted in death by suffocation many plaques with fossil remains of complete specimens have been found that prove it (The Mioplosus died while trying to eat his dinner).
