   Type:
  
  This is a fossil partial skull and selection of vertebrae of the early Squirrel,

  .  This is straight from the field and has not been prepped.  I can see portions of jaw, upper sections, incisors and a vertebra.  They were are found together and come from the same individual.  Tough to find these little squirrels lately.
