Description
English: This fossil palm leaf (Sabalites sp.) [but identified as Palmites at the 2013 website) is on display in the Fossil Butte Visitor Center. The existence of palm fossils in the Green River Formation shows that when the sediments were deposited in this portion of the Green River Basin in Eocene time that the climate was subtropical and probably close to sea level in elevation.
