justrocks Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Hey everyone, Heres a pic of what i believe to be some kind of aurucariaceae fossil. I was told by someone in the collector comunity that it was lepidodendron but as a plantsman as soon as i saw a monkey puzzle tree i recognised it as the same pattern. anybody know how i could clear it up? There are similarly patterned rocks on google images but nothing particularly well preserved - dont trust my own judgment on this lol. thank you.
