This is a rare crinoid from the famous Mississippian layers near Crawfordsville, Indiana. There is a large Ulrichicrinus coryphaeus on this rock. Ulrichicrinus is not a common crinoid from any site, and a specimen of this quality is indeed quite rare. This type of crinoid has a large, cone-shaped cup and extremely long, uniserial arms - these features are beautifully displayed on this crinoid. The sea lily exhibits extraordinary detail - the plate structure is very distinct. The arms are complete to the very tips, which is extremely uncommon. The crinoid has a long stem intact. And the arms and stem have been prepared in a free-standing manner! This is a stunning specimen of Ulrichicrinus - one of the most impressive ones we have seen.
