Description
Pencil and wash drawing of a complete specimen of the skeleton of the fossil fish Uraeus pachyurus Agassiz, by Charles Weber, [1831]. Found in Solnhofen, from Munich Museum.
Note: marked no.2; 'Familia Sauroidei Agassiz'. Also Weber's signature also states 'fec 50' but this appears to be a running count of drawings made rather than a date.
