Dawn Redwood Metasequoia fossil leaves are remarkable for their preservation
Metasequoia fossils are commonly found in rocks dating back to the dinosaur age. This specific specimen has been collected from a well known location for these fossils.
Metasequoia was thought to be extinct until the discovery of living specimens in China in the 1940s. Fossil leaves of Metasequoia provide crucial evidence of the genus's widespread distribution and evolutionary history.
