Ichthyosaur. Eurhinosaurus longirostris. Toarcian (180 million years). Lorraine. Skull originally crushed by sediment compaction and trapped in rock. To obtain this 3D hollowed-out skull, each bone is prepared one by one, then the skull is reassembled in 3D. This skull is the only specimen in the world of Eurhinosaurus present in 3D outside its rocky matrix. 1,2m long.- Blouet brothers collection
