@charles-du So the name given to this would be Artisia. It is the pith cast (inner part of the stem) of an early (but fully) seed plant called Cordaites. Plant fossil nomenclature is weird because we don’t always know what stem goes with what leaf or reproductive part and so although from the same plant, each organ gets its own genus (generic) name.
@charles-du These are great by the way. Enjoying this!
