This is a fabulous specimen of Barycrinus hoveyi from the Mississippian deposits near Crawfordsville, Indiana. This large, robust crinoid is inflated and wonderfully articulated. The large, bulbous, smooth-plated cup shows exquisite plate structure. The stout, branching, uniserial arms are very long for this particular species of crinoid. The short ramules off the arms are beautifully displayed. An EXTREMELY LONG, aesthetically curved stem is still attached to the cup of the crinoid. The cream-colored fossil contrasts nicely with the grey matrix plate. The sea lily is well showcased on the large plate of siltstone. This is possibly the longest-stemmed specimen of Barycrinus we have ever seen. (Stem is 13 inches long!)
