Here is a very unusual plate of fossil leaves from the Green River Formation of Colorado. There are three different leaves on the plate. The multi-lobed leaf in the center of the plate is Macginitiea wyomingensis, a Sycamore Leaf. This leaf has all five lobes preserved with tips intact. This Sycamore leaf still has the long petiole attached and exhibits fine detail. At the top of the slab is a large Zelcova nervosa (Keaki Tree) leaf. At the bottom of the plate is a large Horsetail Rush (Equisetum winchesteri). The fossils have great color and contrast and are nicely showcased on the large, rectangular plate of shale. This is a very displayable plate of unusual fossil leaves from Colorado.
