JBkansas Posted Wednesday at 03:17 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:17 PM (edited) Our local University's museum (KU) hosted "National Fossil Day" on Saturday and one of the stations was doing peels of fossils in coal. I think they said the large cone was from Kentucky and the other material was from Illinois (I was too excited to remember to write it down). Can anyone identify the cone (its 16 cm in length)?

JBkansas Posted 8 hours ago Author Share Posted 8 hours ago Got in touch with the collection director, the cone is a Pinus Escalantensis from the Oligocene of British Columbia. The stems are calamites from the middle Pennsylvanian of Kentucky (left) and Illinois (right). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
