Name: Lyriocrinus melissa
Geologic Age: Middle Silurian
Stratigraphic detail: Rochester Shale Formation

Comments: This is a very scarce crinoid that has the stem attached! The stem measures approx. 4 7/8" long and the head measures another 2.5" tall. The arms are spread out to a width of 4 1/8" long. Plate size is approx. 6" x 9.25". This crinoid had started to undergo some slight decomposition, but is still very well articulated and preserved. Look at the photos and you will see! There is also a small coral attached to the stem of the crinoid!SilurianCrinoid1 Price $145.00
