Rellimia hostinesis (Krejci, 1880)
Small square piece of brown shale. One surface covered in well preserved fossils. The Y' shaped branching plant remains are from one of the earliest vascular plants to colonise the land. In association are two marine Gastropods and numerous examples of the enigmatic problematic fossils, Hyolithoids and Tentaculites. Both these have no known modern affinities. Unusual.
