This is the very early land plant Weylandia rhenana. The fossil comes from Middle Devonian strata
and is a whopping 390 million years old! The fossil comes from layers of the “oldest forest in the
world” in the Bergisches Land in Germany.
We are pleased to be able to offer a fossil from this rare plant for the first time; we have never
had anything like this for sale before.
The stone clearly contains a trunk with several branching branches.
The piece is unbroken and measures approximately 28 x 16 cm x 5 cm.
No manipulation whatsoever!
Rarity for the advanced collection.
