Description:
Stigmaria is a form genus for tree roots of Carboniferous coal forest Lycopod
trees such as Sigillaria and Lepidodendron
Fossils of lycophytes are among the most common plant fossils reported in Oklahoma; one fossil, called Stigmaria, . Lycophyte fossils may be found in rocks
that were deposited during both the Pennsylvanian and Permian Periods,
but are most commonly associated with coal seams (above, below, or in)
where preservation occurred as impressions, compressions, casts and
molds.
Members of Lepidodendrales are the best understood of the fossil
lycopsids due to the vast diversity of Lepidodendrales specimens and the
diversity in which they were preserved; the extensive distribution of
Lepidodendrales specimens as well as their well-preservedness lends
paleobotanists exceptionally detailed knowledge of the coal-swamp
giants’ reproductive biology, vegetative development, and role in their
paleoecosystem
This Root specimen is ten inches long four inches wide and weighs over seven pounds.
It has root like characteristics as well as the pock markings known for the tree bark and roots see photos
