This is the "Fossil Friday" post #212. Expect this to be a somewhat regular feature of the website. We will post any fossil pictures you send in to [email protected]. Please include a short description or story. Check the #FossilFriday Twitter hash tag for contributions from around the world!

This week's contribution comes from a very long time ESCONI member... Lil Magnussen. Lil joined ESCONI back in the 1960's and rarely misses our Braceville field trips. You might remember, she let us post a very nice horseshoe crab in Fossil Friday #177. Her hobbies include beekeeping! And, she makes some very good cookies!
To learn more about Crenulopteris acadica, have a look at Mazon Monday #115.
Lil collected this beautiful fossil specimen from the Mazon River in August of 2023 at the Canal Corridor Mazon Creek outing. Thanks for sharing this gorgeous fern, Lil!
