This piece is considered Very Rare due to the remarkable preservation of multiple individuals together on a single slab.
The anoxic (oxygen-depleted) seafloor of this ancient marine basin prevented decay and scavenging, allowing for the meticulous preservation of soft tissues and fine skeletal details.

The Armigatus Fish is a characteristic of the diverse fauna found in the Sannine Formation.
This extremely rare phenomenon captures a moment in time, where the fish were buried almost instantaneously while swimming together.
