Fossil Ferns, Sphenophyllum
Age: Pennsylvanian
Formation: Llewellyn Formation

This is a beautiful plant fossil. It is a striking plate of fossil fern fronds from Pennsylvania. This specimen is replaced with the mineral Pyrophyllite, which gives the fossil its stunning white color. The ferns have great detail and contrast beautifully with the black matrix plate, which also contains a rare plant, Sphenophyllum. And there are even a mass of fern fronds on the back side of the plate. This is a displayable grouping of fossil fern fronds from the Coal Age.
