Back in Mazon Monday #67, we took a look at Trigonocarpus seeds, which are the seed part of an extinct order of plant called Medullosales. The common name is seed fern. The order includes Mazon Creek species like Alethopteris, Odontopteris, Laveiniopteris, Neuropteris, and Macroneuropteris. Back in Fossil Friday #62, we highlighted an exquisite specimen from ESCONI member George Witaszek. For this week, we have a couple of plates with multiple seed specimens from another ESCONI member. Wow! I bet that makes a nice display!
