Looks similar to a palm leaf. Comments or other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Early Jurassic East Berlin Formation in Connecticut.

Cropped, rotated, and enhanced:

 

I think it is some sort of leaf, but No clue as to what - there is nothing matching in the literature for the north eastern Newark Supergroup. :shrug:

Thank you Tim for the enhanced images. The only thing that might separate this marking, from the other radiating marking I had posted a month ago, is that these long linear marks seem to bend near the bottom of the plate.

I'll have to post one that I have that is somewhat similar. 

Maybe an email to Brian Axsmith is in order.

This was the image that I was trying to upload earlier. Sorry about that! They seem to be different markings.
