saysac Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Found this one today that I really like. It has 3 different specimens in it. Lacoea, Lepidostrobus Cone and I am not sure what the larger one is? Sherry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saysac Posted July 7, 2016 Author Share Posted July 7, 2016 Thank you Pete. I know what the 2 are for sure, just not the large one. Sherry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Maybe Macrostachya sp? That is a great plate, Sherry!

Stocksdale Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I'm thinking the large one is a complete Lacoea cone. I didn't realize until now that what was found previously is described by Richard Leary as Lacoea disks. The disks are arranged into a cone. Here's some illustrations from Leary 1973. The paper "Leary 1973" is available here for download. It just recently was made available and I previously didn't have this one. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0034666773900158 Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.–Carl Sagan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocksdale Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 On this closeup.... I think the frilly edge parts of both items look very similar. What do others think? Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.–Carl Sagan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I think you are right on the money with that, Paul.
