A compression fossil is a fossil preserved in sedimentary rock that has undergone physical compression. While it is uncommon to find animalspreserved as good compression fossils, it is very common to find plants preserved this way. The reason for this is that physical compression of the rock often leads to distortion of the fossil.

The best fossils of leaves are found preserved in fine layers of sediment that have been compressed in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the deposited sediment.
