Sapindopsis sp. – Foglia palmata fossile (Angiosperma primitiva)
Cretaceo Superiore (~95–100 milioni di anni fa)
Provenienza: Nammoura, Libano

Dimensioni della lastra: 29 × 19 cm
Dimensione della foglia: ~21 cm

Elegante esemplare di Sapindopsis, una delle prime angiosperme terrestri note del Cretaceo. Questa pianta è particolarmente importante dal punto di vista evolutivo, poiché rappresenta una fase precoce nello sviluppo delle piante a fiore, destinate a diventare dominanti negli ecosistemi terrestri successivi.

La foglia palmata a più lobi sottili, chiaramente visibile e ben definita nella matrice calcarea, mostra la tipica morfologia riconosciuta nel genere Sapindopsis, con lamina allungata e disposta a ventaglio.

Le piante fossili dei giacimenti libanesi sono decisamente meno comuni rispetto ai celebri pesci e crostacei, rendendo questo esemplare particolarmente ricercato da collezionisti e studiosi di paleobotanica.

Conservazione: molto buona. Nessun restauro. Traccia netta e uniforme.
La lastra è stabile e pronta per esposizione.

Pezzo scientificamente significativo, oltre che di grande valore estetico.

Nota: non spedisco più nel Regno Unito e Svizzera. Gli acquirenti di questi paesi possono comunque fare offerte, ma devono fornire un indirizzo di consegna in un altro paese.
