Guest N.AL.hunter Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I wonder if the leaf is poorly preserved or if it shows insect damage? Would be really neat if insect damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Nice plate The leaf does appear that it might be skeletonized.

Shamalama Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I agree with RJB on the leaf, that is fairly typical of most large leaves that I have found in the Parachute Creek member. It depends on how much weathering the slab went through before you split it. Great small branch, most that I have found are heavily carbonized and not very good looking. -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...
