Here is an excellent specimen of Populus cinnamomoides. This leaf is from the Eocene of Utah. This lance-shaped leaf exhibits very fine detail. The slightly dentate margins are easily seen, and the venation of the leaf is beautifully defined. The long petiole is still attached to the leaf. The fossil has outstanding color and contrast and is very nicely centered on the rectangular plate of matrix. This is a great specimen of Populus cinnamomoides from the Green River Formation.
