Name:
Multiple Leaf Plate
Age: Eocene
Formation: Green River Formation
Location: Bonanza, Utah
Size: Plate is 5.4 inches tall
Here is a large plate of fossil leaves from the Green River Formation of Colorado. There are at least three different leaves on the plate. At the top of the slab is an excellent Leguminosites lesquereuxiana. Right under the Leguminosites is a fine Populus wilmattae (Poplar) leaf. Two Equisetum winchesteri (Horsetails)are also on the plate. The leaves still have the petioles attached and exhibit fine detail. The venation of the leaves is quite evident. The fossils have great color and contrast and are nicely presented on the large, natural plate of shale. This is a very displayable plate of fossil leaves from Utah.
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
