The matrix is packed with crinoid columnals and larger crinoid remains, along with a prominent blastoid and fragments of brachiopods and other marine invertebrates. The abundance of crinoid material is characteristic of the Burlington Formation, where the accumulated remains of these extinct echinoderms make up much of the limestone itself.\n\nSpecies represented on this plate include:\nAbatocrinus laura\nEuthrochrinus christyi\nMacrocrinus verneuilianus\nSchizoblastus sayi\nIdentification card will be included with this specimen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little Lemuria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52629760311512,"sku":"1002ADX3735","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/6826\/0669\/files\/DX3735.png?v=1790982272","url":"https:\/\/littlelemuria.com\/products\/crinoid-and-blastoid-fossil-plate-from-iowa-dx3735","provider":"Little Lemuria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
