Hello, Could I get a species ID on these Annularia leaves from South Korea? I am pretty clueless when it comes to plant material. It is a split pair, and the three whorls together measure about 5 cm across. Provenance: Hambaeksan, Taebaek, Gangwon province, South Korea Thanks!

The fossils of these two ginkgophyte species come from the Koshelyovskaya Formation, located near Mazuyevka, Perm Krai. The sediments in the area are 276 million years old, which corresponds to the middle part of the Kungurian age of the Permian period. Psygmophyllum expansum Psygmophyllum intermedium

We visited Cory's Lane, RI for a bit over an hour. Following guidance in a TFF thread, we turned right at the beach and struggled to convince ourselves we were even in the right place. There was barely an outcrop. The cliff consisted of a largely dirt slope with sporadic rock pieces weathering out. Still we found the most promising of them and split them down and found these three items which might be plant material? I am not sure. As we were walking back to the car we noticed that the other side of the entrance of the beach, i.e., if we had gone left instead of right, was a proper cliffy exposure with many layers and a lot more promising rock in the foreshore. We spent about 20 minutes looking it over but didn't find anything in that time. Did we go to the wrong part of the locality altogether and still manage to find some things? [edit: all the pieces are palm sized, 6-12 cm in length or so] A — suspiciously straight, but doesn't seem to run in the direction of the grain of the rock, so perhaps not just a mineral feature? B — the part that seems like it might be a fossil are the lighter features that radiate from the middle-right edge. They seem like they could be plant matter preserved as a thin film of more reflective mineralization. Best seen when you catch the light just right. C — feature on the left looks like either a wider, fern-like morphology running upward, with pinnules to the left of a rib. Or, alternatively a narrower leaf-shaped form around that rib running downward. I am not 100% sure this isn't a mineral formation. Still, the iridescent quality of the layer is nice. Thanks for your expertise!
