Fossildude19 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Very nice, Roman! The Lepidodendron serpentigurum Koenig is a new one for me - very cool looking. I take it this is not a common find?

Thanks as always, for posting! Regards, I agree with Tim on the coolness of the specimen. Very unusual! -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plantguy Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) I think there is a cone fragment at the Bothrodendron specimen: bcone.jpg Hi Roman, nice finds! Is this bcone.jpg photo a closeup of the picture from both2.jpg above? I was wondering about the horizontal feature you highlited in bothmagn.jpg as whatever it is appears to run across the entire width of the specimen but just a section is visible/exposed. Could that be a narrowing stem and not a cone as most of it appears hidden? Regards, Chris Edited October 10, 2014 by Plantguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
