WILLOW



                        Age: 54 to 37 million years old

                        Size: Leaf: 100 millimeters (4 in) by 10 millimeters (0.4
                        in); matrix: 62 millimeters (2.4 in) by 130 millimeters (5
                        in)

                        Location: Uintah County, Utah

                        Formation: Green River Shale

                        Period: Eocene

                        Species of plants that exist for millions of years without
                        undergoing any changes are a major blow to the theory
                        of evolution. This fossil willow leaf, 54 to 37 million
                        years old, has remained unchanged despite the passage
                        of millions of years. The willow leaves of our day are
                        the same as those that lived 54-37 million years ago.
