3.5" Fossil Leaf (Populus Tidwellii) - Green River Formation, Utah

This is a well preserved 3.5" fossil leaf (populus) from the Green River Formation, Uintah County, Utah. The dark color of the fossil stands out nicely against the gray stone. Populus is a member of the poplar family that includes cottonwoods and Quaking Aspen.

While this formation is best known for well preserved fossil fish found in Wyoming, other sections of the formation contain a very diverse insect fauna.

Comes with an acrylic stand.
