Me and my Araucaria friend for the "Graduate Research Assistant of the Year Award"

The University of Southern Mississippi wanted a "professional photo" for this ward, so I got out the tripod and made this awkward composition at the Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle. At least there's a cool plant in the photo!

Platanus leaf fossil from the Miocene

In the fall of 2014, I found a new fossil plant locality near Hattiesburg, Mississippi. This Platanus fossil was one of the first complete leaf fossils that I excavated from the site. The site is turning out to be one of the richest plant fossil sites for this time period in Eastern North America.

Platanus occidentalis cuticle

I needed to confirm that a fossil cuticle was, in fact, Platanus, so I prepared some modern Platanus cuticle for comparison. The upper cuticle is on the left (with all the stomata) and lower cuticle is on the right. http://cuticledb.eesi.psu.edu/cuticle/1583
