This is a very unique specimen of a Legume branch and Sycamore leaf from the Green River Formation. The Legume branch has six complete leaves intact. The branching pattern is very easily seen. On the right is a fine specimen of a Sycamore leaf. This interesting lobed leaf is quite distinct in appearance. The venation is easily seen, and the serrated edges are very impressive. The fossil leaves have great detail and wonderful natural color and contrast. The plants are nicely spaced on the rectangular plate of matrix. This is an extremely unusual association of two very uncommon leaves from the Eocene.
