Fossil leaves of Neuropteris
Fossil leaves of Neuropteris, a genus created to account for a type of pteridosperm (seed fern) leaf, which appeared in fossil form detached from the original plant. The leaves are found on plants such as Medullosa an arboreal form of seed fern. Neuropteris is typical of the Upper Carboniferous period (280 million years ago) & is widespread in European & North American strata. They are found only in fossil form having been made extinct

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of fossil leaves belonging to the Neuropteris genus. These remarkable leaves originated from a type of pteridosperm, commonly known as a seed fern, and have been preserved in fossil form for over 280 million years. The Neuropteris leaves were discovered detached from their original plant and are often found on arboreal forms like Medullosa. During the Upper Carboniferous period, these exquisite leaves flourished across Europe and North America, leaving behind an extensive footprint in geological strata. Today, they serve as invaluable evidence of Earth's ancient flora. The delicate veins intricately etched onto each leaf tell tales of a bygone era when these plants thrived abundantly. While once vibrant and alive, Neuropteris is now only found in fossilized remnants due to its unfortunate extinction. Paleontologists and enthusiasts alike marvel at the extraordinary preservation seen within this photograph print. It serves as a poignant reminder of our planet's ever-evolving history and the countless species that have come before us. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this snapshot of time through their lens, allowing us to appreciate the sheer elegance held within these long-lost botanical treasures.
