Gennaeocrinus variabilis, Platyceras |
Bell formation |
David Thompson |

Submitted on 2012-07-04 by David Thompson
Location (approximate): Rockport, Alpena, MI
Strat unit: Bell formation
Submitter notes: This species, Gennaeocrinus variables, which is very tiny, 1.176 cm (0.69 inches), can still be host to a snail as
a rare parasite(?). The gastropod is too tiny for good species identification and is covered with bryozoan. Alex Fabian was generous to give me these from the Tom Witherspoon, Sr. collection knowing my interest in these Crinoid/snail
association

Location (approximate): Alpena, Alpena, MI

Submitter notes: This view of the Tegmen of a Megistocrinus rugosus shows the base of a platyceras snail but it also has been called a fragment of an inarticulate brachiopod. In either case the majority of the attached specimen was scraped off during its many millions of years underground. What's your opinion?
