Auspex Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 More lovely fossils; do you think the last one might be a seed/fruit?

RomanK Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 I think it's a seed cause I found some items like that but dont sure what plant particular. It was among cordaites leaves. Cordaites are the gymnosperms predecessor, and as I know quite primitive one which are have the seed just on the leaf. So, hope it's a cordaite seed Roman http://s1143.photobu.../donbassfossil/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auspex Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 cordaites seed...,whith a sort of wing ,perhaps for flying ..... With no birds or other agents to do the job, wind-dispersal makes sense. So much we have yet to know...
