From the Eocene (circa 50 million years ago), an 18 1/2-inch specimen of Diplomystus sp. showing strong definition to the body and fins, preserved in the act of consuming another fish, possibly a Knightia sp., its tail protruding several inches out of the larger fish's mouth, both specimens prepped in rectangular-cut matrix, mounted on board with hanging mounts for ease of display.
