This is a large plate of crinoids. These are Scyphocrinites sp. from the Silurian of Morocco. There are at least three examples of this crinoid on the large 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 the inflated crinoids is quite nice. The beautiful plates of the cups are very apparent, and the long arms are extremely well defined. Some of the specimens still have their stems attached. The dark grey color of the echinoderms contrasts well with the redish-brown matrix. The 3-D 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.
