    :   Cothurnocystis carpoids
    Age:

    Formation:
    Basal Upper Fezouata Formation
    Location:
    North of Zagora, SE Morocco
    Size:
    Plate is 2.75 inches tall!
    This is one of the more uncommon types of echinoderms found in Morocco. It is a plate of THREE Cothurnocystis carpoids from the Basal Upper Fezouata Formation of Zagora, Morocco. Carpoids were extremely primitive echinoderms somewhat related to cystoids. These striking specimens are well displayed, with the plate structures well preserved - the plates are almost never this well preserved. The striking natural coloration contrasts beautifully with the greenish-grey plate of shale. This is one of the better multiple examples of this strange carpoid we have had.
    A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
