Here is a very nice crinoid from a ''new'' locality. This is a fine specimen of Decadocrinus depressus from the Mississippian beds of Southern Indiana. This site has not produced near as many crinoids as Crawfordsville, but the excellent preservation of the fossils is nearly the same. This inadunate crinoid has a small, bowl-shaped cup and long, uniserial arms that have somewhat of a ''zig-zag'' appearance. These features are wonderfully displayed on this specimen. The pinnulated arms are complete to the very tips, and a small section of stem is still tightly attached to the cup. The crinoid has very good color and contrast and is well positioned on a triangular plate of siltstone that is covered with many bryozoans. This is a very detailed example of Decadocrinus depressus from this recently discovered locality.
