This is a museum quality reproduction of a Rhamphorhynchus Skull on a matrix from the Jurassic Age (150 million years) and found in the Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany. Certain fossils are just too costly and some are one-of-a-kind specimens that can only be viewed at museums. The replica Rhamphorhynchus Skull is life size and measures 110mm long on a matrix measuring 150mm long x 95mm wide x 58mm tall.
Rhamphorhynchus was a pterosaur found in Europe and Asia in the Late Jurassic Period. It had a small, furry body with a short neck and tiny legs. Its wings were made of skin stretched between long fourth finger and back legs, reinforced with stiffening fibres and muscles. Its long, stiffened tail ended in a diamond-shaped vane. Rhamphorhynchus's long, narrow, beak-like jaws were filled with sharp teeth that pointed forwards.
Price: £48.00
