Here is a fabulous multiple crinoid plate from Gilmore City, Iowa. The plate has six crinoids preserved (1 Eretmocrinus tentor, 3 Dichocrinus multiplex, and 1 Aorocrinus iola). All of the crinoids are beautifully displayed, with LONG stems present on many of the crinoids. The fossil echinoderms have great color and contrast and are naturally positioned on the large plate of shale that also has NINE more excellent crinoids on the back side! This is a very collectible crinoid multiple from a classic locality that is now closed to collecting. (The red dots are used for identification.)
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
