Mene oblonga

Mene oblonga is a species of ray-finned fish that first appeared in the Monte Bolca Lagerstatten during the Lutetian epoch of the Eocene. For a menid, it has a very shallow body, especially in comparison with the sympatric "Mene rhombea". Its fossils are very rare in Monte Bolca. A single fossil from the early Oligocene, referred to as ""Mene oblonga" var. "pusilla"," was found in Chiavon, Italy.
