If I stare at beautiful Carboniferous fossils for long enough, it’ll make me forget what’s going on in the world just now... right? 🙈 Alethopteris sp. and Renaultia (Sphenopteris) from the Upper Carboniferous of Fife 🖤 #scottishfossils
Alethopteris is my favourite 🖤
Neuropteris sp. also upper Carboniferous (coal measures), Fife 🌿
Lepidodendron sp. 😍
And a wee Sphenopteris .sp, from near Burntisland 🌿
And I can’t leave out Mariopteris 🌿🌱
That made me feel a bit better, but now I’m sad again 😅 Hopefully it makes someone else smile though 🖤
