cck Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Had a good excuse to explore the Falling Creek formation which I think is upper Triassic ( Carnian?) ...a nice walk in the woods and some plants to boot! Haven't had a chance to make ID's yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBrewer Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Nice. Do you have images of the area? Always nice to see along with the haul. Second one is calamites I think. John Map of UK fossil sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cck Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 Here you go... That does look like calamities, but I seem to remember it's an odd leaf structure- I have some paperwork at home... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I would put it under Equisetites sp. Nice finds, CCK. Thanks for posting them.

Fossildude19 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Definitely not Clathropteris meniscoides.
