Name:
Macginitiea wyomingensis (Sycamore Leaf)
Age: Eocene
Formation: Green River Formation
Location: Bonanza, Utah
Size: Leaf is 6 inches wide!
This is a very rare fossil leaf. It is a large Macginitiea wyomingensis (Sycamore) leaf from the Green River Formation of Utah. This leaf is rare in that it has SEVEN lobes - most Sycamore leaves have five. The margins of the leaf are easily seen, and the venation is still defined. A petiole (stem) is still tightly attached to the base of the leaf. The natural, brown color of the leaf contrasts strikingly with the lighter-colored matrix. The fossil is nicely showcased on the square plate of shale. This is a stunning specimen of an ultra-rare seven-lobed Sycamore leaf from the Green River Formation.
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
