Bradley Flynn Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Hi, was on a road trip a few weeks ago for work and stopped at a spot where rocks had been excavated along the road. These rocks where full of partial leaf imprints and stems, alongside Trilobites and bivalves. The first pic is of a few partials I found, second pic has the fossil in question and a stem or leaf of sorts. I am not sure of the age as I'm still trying to piece together how there are leaves with the devonian fossilsI'm guessing that the the rocks are from different layers, the fauna bieng middle to late devonian while the Flora is permian in age. Anyway, will not be getting a chance to go out there anytime soon again. What do you think the spherical fossil could be? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Trilo Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I would guess that its just part of the rock, but I could be wrong. “If fossils are not "boggling" your mind then you are simply not doing it right” -Ken (digit) "No fossil is garbage, it´s just not completely preserved” -Franz (FranzBernhard) "With hammer in hand, the open horizon of time, and dear friends by my side, what can we not accomplish together?" -Kane (Kane) "We are in a way conquering time, reuniting members of a long lost family" -Quincy (Opabinia Blues) "I loved reading the trip reports, I loved the sharing, I loved the educational aspect, I loved the humor.

Definitely possible and I would except that. Thanks for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley Flynn Posted September 20, 2020 Author Share Posted September 20, 2020 Anyone else thinking this is rock? I'm still leaning towards fossil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley Flynn Posted September 20, 2020 Author Share Posted September 20, 2020 Permian Flora is not typical for this area and must have been late devonian in age. I don't think it's a seed, I do still think it's a fossil though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
