In German:

Fossils from the Upper Permian Korbach Fissure in the Hesse State
region of Germany presented to public, with video and photo gallery
(click at bottom of article).

The finds include two teeth of a large archosaur (called a
"rauisuchian" in the photo caption but in the video interview Frey
calls simply refers to them as "archosaurier" (archosaur) teeth).

an earlier temporary exhibit.]
