RJB Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Im not sure what this is, but it looks like some kind of seedpod to me? This also came from the Parachute member of the Green River Formation. I really like this little thing. Im guessing it measures about 1 inch or so?

Bill Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Nice pod. I just got this back from the Natural History Museum, London. They could not id it past Plantae. It is lower Lias, Jurassic material, from England. Any ideas. By the way, I have had plenty of "running shoe/golf shoe imprint" type replies on the ukfossils forum. thankyou. KOF, Bill.
