Name:
Lepidodendron Bark
Age: Pennsylvanian
Formation: Cherokee Series
Location: Pella, Iowa
Size: Plate is 13 inches across!
This is a very fine plate of Lepidodendron branches from the Pennsylvanian of Iowa. Lepidodendron trees were very important in the formation of coal in the mid-continent area. The diamond-shaped pattern of the bark is very distinct - each ''diamond'' represents the point of attachment of a fallen leaf. This specimen has many large examples of branches preserved. The color is striking, and the pattern is very detailed. There is also a fabulous branch on the back side of the plate! This is a top quality specimen of Lepidodendron tree branches from Iowa.
