Notidanodon

Recommended Posts

Hi guys I was wondering what your thoughts on this flint echinoid were, is it too worn to be identified?

Hi,

 

It looks like Collyrites with its bivium and trivium, but we’d need better pictures from above.

I don't think it's Collyrites.

Collyrites has posterior ambulacras near the periproct.

Here they are near the apex

I think it's an Holasteridae.

To be sure, we need the epoch

It’s likely cenomian or turonian, does that help?

Yes, a lot.

Collyrites is jurassic and not cretaceous.

So it could be an Holasteridae but it's an internal mold and difficult to id more.

Thanks! :)
