ntloux Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I am attaching photos of Sigillaria fossils in my collection. Members of the Forum have been helpful before and as always, suggestions/comments/corrections are welcome. The first image is of a Pennsylvanian Sigillaria syringodendron specimen from Czechoslovakia. The second image is of a Sigillaria specimen from the Pennsylvanian in Eastern Kentucky. The third image is a Pennsylavanian Sigillaria specimen from the Westphalian in Czerwionka, Poland. The fourth image is of Pennsylvanian Sigillaria leaves from Podrovskoe, District of Donetsk Region, Ukraine. The contrast is poor but these leaves do have a remarkable similarity to grasses (although grasses did not evolve until hundreds of millions of year later). The last image is of a Pennsylvanian specimen from Kentucky that was identified by a helpful Forum member as a Sigillaria cortex specimen. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Very interesting, thanks for sharing. These are Sigillaria, I think, rather than sigillarius? 1 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntloux Posted April 24 Author Share Posted April 24 I agree. However, the editing period had expired once I realized this and I cannot change it to sigillaria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
