Dicranurus Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Here is 3 leaves from Lake Uinta Green River formation. It would be nice if somebody know what genus/species these fossils are.

ebrocklds Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 the first apears to be a Drophyllum sp. (walnut family) but i am not certain. second is definately Salix sp. and third is possibly Caesalpina sp. (Divi-divi tree) again hard to say for sure without better preservation of the veination. these all occure regularly in the green river formation of utah colorado and wyoming Brock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
