Cretaceous Petrified fruits
Late Cretaceous (Late Campanian)
Cerro del Pueblo Formation
Coahuila
Mexico

Fossil fruits from the Cretaceous are important records of early angiosperm diversity, preserving evidence of the reproductive structures that allowed flowering plants to become one of the dominant groups of terrestrial vegetation. Petrification can preserve remarkable internal and external anatomical detail, providing insight into seed development and plant evolution
