Description: Archaeopteryx lithographica, fragmentary fossil. As these fossil bones represent one wing of Archaeopteryx, this specimen is known as "chicken wing". Imprints of the feathers are faintly visible below the fingers, which have claws. This image was taken at the Munich Mineral Show 2009. (It shows the original fossil - not a cast.)
