Paleonet: help with identifying fossil casts

Mon Dec 12 15:08:57 UTC 2022

Hi Warren,

The Teleosaurus is in the later Krantz catalogues. The original is in the Senckenbergmuseum if I'm correct. The Ichthyosaurus I couldn't find, maybe also Senckenberg, but better chance Stuttgart; or Hauff?

Best

Paul

These two casts - an ichthyosaur and a teleosaur -- are in the PRI collection and we are trying to determine where the original specimens might be. We don't think they are part of the collection of casts from Ward's Natural Science Establishment, but they might be. Any suggestions appreciated.
