Here is a very nice plate of two different leaves from the Eocene of Utah. There is an unusual oak leaf, Quercus cuneatus, on the left side of the slab. This leaf is complete and well detailed. The entire margins are intact and the venation is easily seen. On the right is a fabulous Zelkova nervosa (Keaki Tree) leaf. The fossil plants have excellent color and contrast. They are very nicely showcased on the semi-rectangular block of shale. This is a great plate of two different leaves from the Green River Shale.
