COLLECTING FOSSIL PLANTS IN FLORIDA While fossil plant remains are nowhere as abundant as the remains of fossil vertebrates, or invertebrates in Florida, they are nonetheless, an important part of Florida's fossil record. In fact, the fossil sea grasses found in the limestones of the MIddle Eocene Avon Park Formation of south-central Florida are among the oldest fossils known from Florida. Other leaf impressions are seen in Miocene, Pliocene, and Pleistocene clays. Petrified woods, represente ...

Hunting For Fossil Cycads in Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona As part of a coöperative venture between the Western Interior Paleontological Society (WIPS) and the Petrified Forest National Park, I had the opportunity to do some fieldwork in the park in October 1992. The rocks exposed there are mostly the upper Triassic Chinle Formation, a series of interbedded sandstones, claystones, and shales representing lakebed and floodplain deposits. All of our work was to be in the lowe ...

Oceans once covered great areas of what is now inland Australia. Their traces remain in fossils, minerals and geological formations that reveal much about how Earth has changed over time. D ...

Imprints of the Past Suspended in Time It is difficult for paleontologists to examine the geologic history of spiders and insects. Their fossil records are poor because these animals are usually soft-bodied and decay quickly after death. It is equally difficult to study the forms of delicate body parts, like feathers or fur, because they too deteriorate rapidly. But a natural preservative--amber, or fossilized tree resin--helps scientists discover the history of such fragile specimens. Prehistoric insects, spiders, and the parts of some organisms sometimes became trapped in sticky resin and were preserved when it hardened into amber.
