Here is a gorgeous plate of crinoids from the Mississippian beds of Crawfordsville, Indiana. There are four crinoids on the plate - and all four are different types! On the right of the slab is a fine specimen of Macrocrinus mundulus. This 3-dimensional crinoid has very fine detail preserved - the long anal tube is easily seen. In the center of the plate is a great example of Agaricocrinus splendens. This specimen also has a long stem attached. The two crinoids on the left are unidentified. These crinoids also have stems and are preserved next to a large, distinct brachiopod! These fossils have wonderful, natural color and contrast very nicely with the yellow-brown matrix. This is an excellent assortment of crinoids from the famous Crawfordsville, Indiana area.

This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
