Two Fossil Leaves (Zizyphoides & Unidentified) - Montana

These are two fossil leaves (Zizyphoides flabellum and unidentified) from the Fort Union Formation near Glendive, Montana. The unknown leaf is 3" long and the Zizyphoides leaf is 3.2" long. The dark orange/brown preservation contrasts well against the shale, and many of the details in the leaves can be seen in good relief. There may be some touchups to the surface of the leaves where pieces of them flaked onto the negative during collection.

This specimen includes an acrylic display stand.

#1 - Zizyphoides flabellum (3.2" long)
