EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisitely preserved specimen of Lates gracilis, an ancient bony fish that inhabited Earth's waters during the Eocene epoch, approximately 50 million years ago. Belonging to the Actinopterygii, or ray-finned fish, and specifically the Perciformes, or perch-like fish, order, this remarkable fossil is a testament to the rich biodiversity of the prehistoric world. The Lates gracilis, also known as the Eocene Lates or the Eocene perch, is a significant find due to its distinctive anatomy. With its large, round eye, this fish boasts a striking resemblance to its modern counterparts, the Latidae family, which includes the popular Lates perch or Mosquito fish. The fish's elongated, grained body and large, rayed pectoral and caudal fins are evident in this meticulously detailed fossil. The fossilized Lates gracilis was discovered in limestone deposits, a common habitat for ancient marine life. Its preservation in such high quality is a rare find, providing valuable insights into the anatomical features and evolutionary history of bony fish. As we delve deeper into the Phanerozoic Con, the geological time period marked by the presence of fossilized organisms, discoveries like this serve as the key to unlocking the mysteries of our planet's past. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any collection or display but also a reminder of the breathtaking diversity of life that has existed on Earth throughout its history. The Lates gracilis, with its captivating appearance and historical significance, is a true treasure from the Cenozoic era, the current geological period that began after the extinction of the dinosaurs.
