拍品专文

The Green River Formation presents us with a flora that bordered a warm freshwater lake 50 million years ago. Plant material is amongst the scarcest in the fossil record, and from this formation palm fronds are occasionally found but the current specimen is a very rare (and important) survival indeed.
