2.2" Insect Eaten Fossil Sycamore Leaf - Montana

This is a detailed, Sycamore Leaf fossil (Macginitiea) from the Fort Union Formation of Montana. It is from the Paleocene epoch, or approximately 60 million years old. The dark brown preservation of the leaf fossil contrasts well against the lighter shale, and all the veins of the leaf can be seen in good relief. The leave shows some signs of being eaten by insects.

It comes with an acrylic display stand.
