blackmoth Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 we've aften seen this buckhorn shape stuff a lot . cannot help asking what it might be, branch or root of some genus. it is Later-Carboniferous-Early Permian stratum. the scale is cm-mm.

Rockwood Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 This is a tough one. I can see why one would see plant or root like shapes, but I believe a more comprehensive evaluation of all the features is in order to rule out traces left by some faunal element. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, it looks very similar to some Dicranophyllum figures I found online. But could not imagine how a thin, long leave bifurcated multiple times can stand up.
