Crinoid Queen Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Hay guys Sorry haven't been n for the past few weeks had a tooth pulled and it got infected after MAPS!!! Was no fun. I was in bed pretty much for a week straight. I hate dentists. But any who I have been feeling better the last few days and so I finally was able to get started on the finds form the great Sunday trip after the show. So here are the first two. Need a little help with the little one. I am totally confused on it. The caylix almost looks Platycrinites-ish but the way the stem twist is so distinctly Camptocrinus????? I am pretty sure this one is a Hypselocrinus hoveyi What do you guys think they are?? Let me know please Hugs -CQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crinus Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 The first crinoid is a Camptocrinus. I agree that the second is a Hypselocrinus and after much debate we think that the last crinoid is an Aulocrinus. That should make you very happy. crinus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
