3.1" Fossil Sycamore Leaf and Catkin Flower - Utah

Fossil Sycamore Leaf and Catkin Flower - Utah #219787

This is a partial fossil sycamore (Macginitiea wyomingensis) leaf and a catkin flower from the Green River Formation of Utah. The dark color of the leaf contrasts nicely against the cream-colored shale. While the Green River Formation is best know for its fish fossils, other areas produce incredible plant fossils.

Comes with an acrylic stand.

A note on Green River leaf identifications. Over 60 described leaf bearing plants have been identified from this formation, many of which have very similar leaves. We have done our best to provide identifications based on the resources available to us, but we are not paleobotany experts and cannot guarantee that all will be 100% correct.
