Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Glossopteris leaf fossils
Fossil leaves of Glossopteris browniana. This leaf, which dates to the Permian period (between 299 to 251 million years ago), belongs to an extinct order of seed ferns. Glossopteris fossils were one of the original pieces of evidence given to support the theory of continental drift. Specimen from Dunedoo, New South Wales, Australia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Glossopteris leaf fossils, offering a glimpse into the ancient world of prehistoric plants. Dating back to the Permian period, which spanned from 299 to 251 million years ago, these fossil leaves belonged to an extinct order of seed ferns known as Glossopteris browniana. Preserved within rocks in Dunedoo, New South Wales, Australia, this specimen holds immense significance in both paleontology and our understanding of Earth's history. Glossopteris fossils played a pivotal role in supporting the theory of continental drift. These beautifully preserved fronds provided early evidence that continents were once connected and have since drifted apart over millions of years. Their discovery shed light on how landmasses have evolved throughout geological time. Through palaeobotany and palaeontological studies, scientists have unraveled crucial insights about plant life during the Permian period. The intricate details captured within this fossilized leaf offer valuable information about ancient flora and contribute to our knowledge of prehistory. As we marvel at this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate its significance as a testament to Earth's ever-changing landscape. This print serves as a reminder that even long-extinct species can leave behind enduring imprints for us to study and learn from today.
