| Abstract | The Talbragar Fish Bed, located in central New South Wales (NSW) is one of the bestfossil sites for studying Jurassic fi shes in Australia. It contains well-preserved external moulds of atleast eight fi sh genera, many plant fragments and, due to recent discoveries, an increasing number ofinsects. The site was discovered in 1889 and its importance was recognised immediately. Fossils havebeen known since the 1960s from the Koonwarra fossil fi sh site. Both Australian Mesozoic localitieshave a wide diversity of fi shes and plants. They represent well preserved Gondwanan sites which addto our knowledge of the southern continent. |
