Here is an incredibly diverse crinoid plate from Gilmore City, Iowa. The plate has seven excellent crinoids of FOUR different types preserved (2 Eretmocrinus tentor, 2 Aorocrinus iola, 2 Cercidocrinus fimbria, and one unusual, unidentified crinoid). All of the crinoids are beautifully displayed, with LONG stems present on a few of the crinoids. The fossil echinoderms have great color and contrast and are naturally positioned on the large, natural plate of limestone. This is a very collectible crinoid multiple from this historic fossil locality. (The red dots are used for identification.)
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
