Beautiful 2.4" Fossil Leaf (Beringiaphyllum) & 2.3" (Zizyphoides flabellum)- Montana

This is a beautifully preserved pair of fossil leaves from two different species. One is a Beringiaphyllum cupanoides, and the other is a Zizyphoides flabellum. They are leaf fossils from the Fort Union Formation of Montana. The Beringiaphyllum leaf is 2.4" long, and the Zizyphoides flabellum leaf is 2.3". They are 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. It comes with an acrylic display stand.
