5.2" Carboniferous Fossil Fern (Lescurofiteris) - France

This is a gorgeous fossil fern (Lescurofiteris genvina) from the Late Carboniferous-aged Montceau-les-Mines Lagerstatte of France. This formation is Stephanian Stage in age, or approximately 300 million years old. The fern measures 5.2" long and is nicely centered on a rectangular-cut, 5.6 x 4.5" thick slab of rock.

There is a repaired crack through the middle of the rock/fossil.

Comes with an acrylic display stand.
