Name:
Fossil Seed Fern
Age: Pennsylvanian
Formation: Braidwood Formation
Location: Johnson County, Missouri

Here is an excellent fossil seed fern from the Pennsylvanian of Missouri. This plant is well preserved in a concretion. Both halves of the concretion are present, so both part and counterpart of the plant are intact. This long seed fern exhibits superb detail - even the venation of the individual leaflets is clearly defined. The dark brown fossil contrasts beautifully with the orangish matrix. This is a great example of a fossil seed fern from the Coal Age.
