Palms are common fossil specimens from the FBM. Variation in morphology of specimens indicates Fossil Lake may have been home to several palm species. There are over 2,000 living palm species, found naturally in tropical, sub-tropical, and humid environments. Palm specimens are indicators of a warm, sub-tropical environment at Fossil Lake.
