Here is a recent plant fossil find from the Early Jurassic East Berlin Formation in Hartford County, Connecticut, USA. I gently rinsed the fossil a couple of times thinking it may be a fern-like "false fossil". But from what I could tell at this moment, it may be legit, especially since part of the fossil is overlayed with sediment. Comments, or a possible identification would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Fossil, or modern plant imprint? Early Jurassic of Connecticut.
Cianfaglione posted a topic in Fossil ID
I'm not sure if I'm looking at a true fossil, or is this an impression of a modern day plant. As I often do, I washed the fossil down with warm water three times with the hope that if it was a modern imprint, it would partially, or completely fade away. Since it didn't fade one bit, I would like to please ask if these plant impressions are indeed legit fossils, or a stubborn modern day imprint. Early Jurassic, East Berlin Formation of Connecticut, USA. Thank you!- 2 replies

Early Jurassic plant fragment; East Berlin Formation in Connecticut
Cianfaglione posted a topic in Fossil ID
The first time I found this type of triangular marking I thought it was a broken off tip of a much larger plant fossil. Five specimens later (all identical in size and shape including straight-edged base) and I'm now starting to think that this might be a possible pinnae to some sort of cycadophyte. Illustration from the book Introduction to Plant Fossils; Cleal and Thomas. Early Jurassic, East Berlin Formation of Connecticut. Thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated.- 4 replies

I'm still going through some of the rock that I collected from a road cut of the Early Jurassic East Berlin Formation (200 mya) in Connecticut. This caught my eye this afternoon, maybe a leaf?? It looks like a leaf from my ginkgo bonsai that I have sitting on my desk! Maybe its nothing. Thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated! Fossil is part and counterpart.

Here is one more fossil plate (same location as previous post) that I found the other day along a road cut of the Early Jurassic East Berlin Formation (200 mya) in Connecticut. Maybe a horsetail and strobilus (bottom right corner)?? I don't know what the halo around the vertical lines are about. Thoughts and comments are again greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I found this fossil plate two days ago along a road cut of the Early Jurassic East Berlin Formation (200 mya) in Connecticut. I'm not sure what these trace fossils might be, maybe bivalves?? Thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated Thank you.

I found this fossil plate last weekend along a road cut of the Early Jurassic East Berlin Formation (200 mya) in Connecticut. A similar image posted to this forum hints that these tadpole-shaped trace fossils may be bivalves. I have in the past found invertebrate tunnels at this same location, but these certainly do not look the same. Some of the trace fossils overlap, which makes me think that they could be something else. Could they be fish larvae?? Thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated Thank you.
