DescriptionWatercolour study of an incomplete specimen of the fossil fish Scylliodus antiquus Agassiz, by Joseph Dinkel, [1834-1843]. Found in the Chalk from Kent, in the collection of Sir Philip de Malpas Grey Egerton.

Note: the specimen is clearly the same as that shown in LDGSL/614/3/108, however that drawing states that the fish was in the collection of William Willoughby Cole, later 3rd Earl of Enniskillen.
