Random Fossil


Fossil of a fish like thing with a triangular head.  Legs are also visible though - so not a fish.
Image stolen shamelessly from the DK Encyclopaedia of Dinosaurs and Pre-historic Life.


Andrias is a genus of giant salamanders. It includes the largest salamanders in the world. While extant species are only known from East Asia, several extinct species in the genus are known from late Oligocene and Neogene.
