More Beltzville Fossils - Looking for ID help

Recommended Posts

I went back to Beltzville recently and found a few more fossils with which I would like help identifying.  Last time I found what may have been a partial trilobite, and this time I found another that seems more likely.  I also found a fossil that I originally picked up for the crinoid stem, but later noticed a dome with an almost honeycomb-like pattern on it.  I am very curious as to what it is.  And lastly, what appears almost like a large ring.  Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks as always!

The honeycomb is a crinoid calyx. An internal mold of the cup. The pattern is the plates which it was composed of.

First is an imprint of an Eldredgeops rana trilobite thorax. 

Next looks like a crinoid calyx.  VERY NICE. 

Then what looks like a gastropod, maybe something like Bembexia. Internal mold, perhaps.
