We're making a dichotomous key to ID #plants from a couple specific rock formations in the #paleo collection. Very technical language. *nods*
(This is just an initial outline. The final will actually be broadly usable by undergrads and include pictures.)

#FossilAdventCalendar Day 3
We're jumping to the #Maritimes today to celebrate one of #Canada's 🇨🇦 most important #fossil sites. #NovaScotia's #JogginsFossilCliffs are a window into the #Carboniferous, a period that saw the spread of a new #biome: #forests. The #fossilized #tree on display here at the #RoyalOntarioMuseum is a #lycopsid, a super-sized relative of living #ClubMosses that, along with #cycads, #ferns, and early relatives of #seed #plants made up the #flora of the #Joggins #forest.
