Here is an amazing multiple crinoid plate from Gilmore City, Iowa. The plate has FIFTY(!) crinoids preserved (Eretmocrinus tentor, Dichocrinus multiplex, Aorocrinus iola, and Circidocrinus cirrifer). All of the crinoids are beautifully displayed, with LONG stems present on many of the crinoids. The fossil echinoderms have nice color and contrast and are naturally positioned on the very large plate of limestone (over a FOOT long!) This is one of the most prolific multiple plates we have seen from this historic crinoid locality. (The fossil is actually more impressive in person than the photos show.)
