Name: Ophiopinna elegansis
Geologic Age: Middle Jurassic
Location: La Voulte-sur-Rhone, France
Comments: This is a gorgeous, large slab of RARE Brittle Stars from the Jurassic of France.  The location where this plate came from has been CLOSED for many years now.. this specimen came from an old collection out of Germany.. There are many, many complete specimens present ranging from
1/4" wide to 2" wide.   There are specimens present on BOTH sides of this plate!   You'd be hard-pressed to find a plate like this anywhere else on the web!  The plate measures approx. 8.5" x 12" in size.

Comments: Very nice RAISED Starfish plates... these may have been resting places where the starfish had sat in the sediments, or these are internal casts of the fossilized starfish..
