Knightia humilis, Green River fish or Knighta eocaena is the offical state fossil of Wyoming. They had heavy scales and small conical teeth.

Knightia humilis fish made an abundant food source for larger Eocene predators. The Green River Formation has yielded many fossils of larger fish species preying on them.

In Knighta fish, rows of dorsal and ventral scutes run from the back of the head to the medial fins.

Researches have found specimens of Diplomystus, Lepisosteus, and Amphiplaga with them in either their jaws or stomachs.

Pitch, the Knightia humilis fish replica, makes the best salsa on earth. All the ingredients are from his garden. The secret that makes it so good is the cilantro. He also makes his own tortilla chips.

Mystery, the Diplomystus dentatus fish plaque replica, is secretly selling it at all the grocery stores and making so much money.

Tester, the Phareodus testis fish replica, has discovered what Mystery has been up to for years, and informed Pitch of what is going on with Mystery.

Platter, the Dapedium punctatus fossil replica, is plotting to take a video of Mystery driving the delivery truck that is clearly marked with Mystery’s Magnificent Salsa plastered all over the truck and sending it to Pitch.
