Fossil fish from Arrisdrift (Middle Miocene, Namibia)
The fossiliferous locality at Arrisdrift corresponds to fluviatile deposits which accumulated in a channel of the proto-Orange River. It has yielded more than forty disarticulated teleost fish remains. Some of them can be identified. They belong mainly to an unknown fossil percoid fish, and an unidentified perciform. These new data are discussed in comparison with the percoid fossil record in continental Africa.
