Tidgy's Dad Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) In the little bits of matrix I have from the Waldron Shale of the Illinois Basin of SW Indiana, I have recently found this specimen. I'm fairly sure it's a crinoid, may even be two or three in this piece, a sort of mini mortality plate. Anyone have any idea which genus of crinoid it could be please? A second calyx to the upper right of the first, perhaps? This looks like another calyx, located just under the first but aligned in the same direction : Edited June 5, 2022 by Tidgy's Dad Life's Good! Tortoise Friend.
