Bothrodendron

[RomanK]

Bothrodendron is a geterosporous lycopsid from the Middle Carboniferous. It's a tree-sized plant that had a very fine morfolgical details like 1.5 mm size leaf scars. That's why I have noted those things I found just 3-4 year after I began to collect fossils. You can see some specimens below:

1. Thin stem with two attached lateral branches

2. Ulodendroid type of branch scars from the same site:

 

 

3. Specimen with piece of bark and cone (probably Bothrodendrostrobus):

Exquisite photos, Roman. 

The levels of preservation in your area (and your keen eyes) never cease to amaze me.  

Thank you for posting them.
