Early Jurassic Shuttle Meadow Formation, 

Hartford Basin, Newark Supergroup. 

 

Found on 2/16/2020, in the company of Jeffrey P. 

While they are more plentiful in northern part of the Hartford Basin, this is a rather rare find for the southern Hartford Basin 

In 25 years of collecting I've only found 7 or so examples of this Fern at this locality.

Some form of Equisetium, I suppose.

Will have to send this one to a contact I have.

The plants of the Hartford Basin are poorly studied, and in need of review.

Otozamites latior is easily distinguished from Otozamites brevifolis by the gaps between the pinnules, and the longer, thinner pinnules.
