Submitted by: David Thompson
Taxon: Gilbertsocrinus ohioensis, Platyceras bucculentum
Submit date: 2011-08-14
Location (approximate): Sylvania, Lucas, OH
Stratigraphy: Silica Formation
Age: Erian (Middle Devonian)
Submitter notes: This is another tiny pyritized crinoid from the Silica shale showing 11. mm of stem into cup that is 10.7 mm wide. The protective spines of this species did not protect it from the gastropod (possibly bucculentum sp.) from getting onto the tegmen.
