Stock Number  FPFPA824
EXTINCTIONS Choice

Name:   Large Fossil Fern Frond
Age:  Pennsylvanian
Formation:  Llewellyn Formation
Location:  Near St. Clair, Pennsylvania
Size:  Main frond is 6.2 inches long!

This is a fabulous fossil plant from the now-closed location near St. Clair, Pennsylvania. The fossil fern frond is preserved as a thin film of white pyrophyllite on black shale. The detail of this fossil is quite nice, and the frond is quite large - over six inches long! And there are also other nice fronds on the plate! This is a very collectible example of a large fossil fern frond and others from the Coal Regions of Pennsylvania
