Description

Middle Miocene (Seldovian)
Sucker Creek Formation – Sucker Creek Flora
Malheur County, Oregon, USA
28mm seed on 47mm slab.

Plant. Seed.

Isolated seeds are difficult-to-impossible to identify if they are not known from specimens connected to the rest of the plant.  This is often the case with extinct plants from the Paleozoic or Mesozoic with no modern relatives.

This specimen is an affordable example of a plant fossil for the budding fossil collector or casual science enthusiast.
