Possible partial micro crinod calyx

Recommended Posts

I think I found myself a partial crinoid calyx in some micro matrix. Pennsylvanian period, Jasper Creek fm, Bridgeport, Texas. Measuring just 1.5 cm in length plus another tiny cluster that may be part of another. So I'm posting both on here for more learned opinions. The 2nd one is a bit smaller, measuring only .5 cm in length. I'd like to find an entire calyx (or an entire critter). I seem to have become partial to crinoids for some reason.

They look like crinoid calyx and arms, to me. Neat finds. :)

I also agree with the partial crinoid calyx. The second specimen may contain pluricolumnals.
