This is a great multiple plate of crinoids. These are Scyphocrinites sp. from the Silurian of Morocco. There are at least three large examples of this crinoid on the slab. This type of camerate crinoid has a huge cup composed of many, many stellate plates and long, multi-branching, uniserial arms. The detail of these inflated crinoids is quite nice. The beautiful plates of the cups are very apparent, and the long arms are extremely well defined. The dark gray color of the echinoderms contrasts well with the redish-brown matrix. The crinoids are wonderfully presented on the plate of limestone that contains many other crinoid fragments. This is a very displayable multiple specimen of this highly ornamented crinoid from Morocco.
