First one to identify this animal* (photographed with my new microscope) wins a GEOLOGY ROCKS bumper sticker... Width of photo is about 2 cm.

It's three arms of a crinoid. Sorry I can't narrow it down any more than that. You really are having fun teasing us with this new toy, aren't you? :)

Well done Howard!
Send me your mailing address via e-mail and I'll pop the sticker in the mail.
Congratulations. Beautiful close-up, no?
Woohoo! Thanks! I'll display the sticker with pride!
Yes, a nice closeup, indeed. What else can you tell us about this specimen? Looks like a chalky matrix; is this one of the Cretaceous 'noids from Kansas?
