same as previous specimen
A closer picture of the individual pinnule is needed. The pinnules appear to have regular margins and are symmetrical which narrows it down to the Pecopteris, Neuropteris or even Alethopteris like groups. At this scale, its hard to tell if the pinnule attaches to the rachis broadly along the base (Pecopteris) or more narrowly (Neuropteris like group). Being able to see the venation is also necessary to be able to tell the difference and to narrow it down further. https://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/Fern_ID_Help.html illustrates this.
it looks like some sort of pre historic leaf print
Thank you for the responses. Gives me a great place to start my research.
