Name:
Fossil Seed Ferns
Age: Pennsylvanian
Formation: Llewellyn Formation
Location: Near St. Clair, Pennsylvania
Size: Plate is 12.5 inches wide
This is a large plate of spectacular fossil Seed Ferns from the classic St. Clair, Pennsylvania locality. The Seed Ferns are preserved as a thin film of white pyrophyllite on black shale. The plate has many fronds intact, and many are different sizes and shapes - there are even fronds preserved that are complete to the tips! The fossil ferns exhibit wonderful detail - the individual leaflets of the fronds are clearly defined. The fossils have outstanding color and contrast and are well presented on the large (over a foot wide!), natural plate of shale. And the back side of the plate also has a few ferns preserved. This is a very collectible plate of distinct Coal Age fossils from Pennsylvania.
