    Simple google gives many many sites of shrimp fossils from Lebanon for sale, attributed to this genus-

    Perimecturus: also subphylum Crustacea. 2002 It was assigned to Stomatopoda by Sepkoski (2002).

    Maximum range based only on fossils: Aptian to Rancholabrean or 125.0 to 0.011 Ma


  2. Palaeos has something on Salmoniformes which might help.  I'm afraid fish don't feature high im my interests.
