| description |
|
| Alethopteris grew in areas of hot swamps approximately 300 million years ago. This is a large and very fine example that has been preserved on a hard block of Siltstone. Fronds of this quality rarely come up for sale and are highly sought after. A very nice aesthetic specimen. |
