This is a very unusual multiple specimen of leaves from the Green River Formation. There is (left to right) a Zelcova nervosa (keaki tree) leaf, Macgintia (Sycamore) leaf, and a Salix (Willow) leaf on the plate. All three leaves are quite distinct in appearance - the venation is easily seen. The serrated edges of the Sycamore are very impressive, and all five lobes are intact and well displayed. The fossil leaves have great detail and wonderful natural color and contrast. The fossil plants are naturally spaced on the rectangular plate of matrix. This is a very collectible association plate of three different leaves from the Eocene.




A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
