This is a fantastic crinoid fossil. It is a huge Traumatocrinus hsuixi from China. This type of crinoid is Triassic in age - very few crinoids are found in the Triassic. This specimen has the best of both worlds - it is large and it is detailed. The crinoid is 22 inches long with the stem intact, and the crown is a full 10 inches wide. That's one big crinoid! The "sea lily" also has great natural whitish color and extremely fine detail- the pinnules on the arms are even preserved. This is one of the best display crinoids we have ever had. It is a wonderful example of this huge Mesozoic crinoid.
