This is a rare multiple plate of Ordovician crinoids. There are many Eopatelliocrinus scyphogracilis crinoids preserved on this slab. This specimen was recently acquired from a major crinoid collection. The 3-dimensional crinoids on this plate are nicely articulated and have excellent detail - even the unique plate structure is beautifully defined. The delicate, splayed arms showcase the tiny pinnules in ''feathery'' fashion. Some of the sea lilies still have LONG sections of their stems tightly attached. The dark-colored crinoids contrast strikingly with the light-colored matrix. The distinct sea lilies are wonderfully showcased on the large, natural plate of limestone. This is a rare plate of Eopatelliocrinus scyphogracilis from Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
