This is a large crinoid holdfast from the Silurian of Indiana. The quarry where this specimen was found is now filled with water and closed to collecting. This holdfast is well preserved and exhibits fine detail. The central stem is easily seen, and the roots just keep branching. The fossil has very good color and contrast (better than the picture shows) and is well centered on the squared matrix plate that also contains bryozoa and other fossils. This is a top quality fossil crinoid holdfast root system.
