Description
The Jurassic Crustacean Palinurina for sale here comes from the famous Solnhofen Limestones in Germany. The species Palinurina longipes is a rather smaller shrimp in the ancient ecosystem of the Jurassic Solnhofen Limestones. This Jurassic Crustacean Palinurina for sale here measures with the antenna spread about 3 inches or 7,5 cm. The slab is 7 inches or 18 cm by 6 inches or 15,5 cm. Professional glued crack.
Due to less demand in decorative stones the production of Solnhofen Limestones slowed down since the 1990’s. Many quarries closed down. The final blow came in July 2023, when production seized (for now?). The storages for Solnhofen Limestones are full.
