Phyllites sp.

Pl. 12, Fig. 1

The illustrated entire-margined, strap-shaped foliage fragment slightly narrowing towards one end, 48 mm long and 5 to 10 mm wide, with a midrib and two rows of irregularly placed dots on either side near the margin (12 and 13 dots) can be best interpreted as a dicot leaf bearing trace fossils (bodies of fungal or animal origin), although the pattern also resembles fern sori.
