Penny Quarry Fossils
The Stanger Formation is a geological formation located in Kansas, United States. It is known for its rich deposits of plant fossils, which provide valuable insights into the flora of the region during the Late Pennsylvanian period, approximately 300 million years ago.
The plant fossils found in the Stanger Formation include a variety of ferns, lycopods, and horsetails. These plants were likely part of a wetland ecosystem that existed in the region during the Late Pennsylvanian period. The fossils are well-preserved and provide important information about the morphology and evolution of these ancient plant species.
