This is a rare fossil plant. It is a large specimen of Cooksonia (?) from the eurypterid site in New York State. This is a Silurian plant from a brackish-water environment, so its occurrence in the fossil record is very limited. This specimen has good detail and super contrast. This is a very important Paleozoic plant fossil.
