Mazon Creek - unknown fern

Recommended Posts

Perhaps one of the Mazon Creek experts could help with the ID of this 

 

Was sold to me as Mazon Creek Pecopteris

Look a bit different to the usual Pecopteris that I have seen

Looks like Pecopteris to me, but species ID  would need a close up of the veination on the pinnules.

Thanks

 

The other Mazon Creek material that I have are larger individual pinnules. 

Thought this preservation may be something different ?
