Global Museum<p>Crinoids are also known as ‘sea lilies’ and are animals related to starfish and sea urchins. In parts of England, the column forming the stem are made of of many small star shaped structures, and when the fossils of these stems are found they are called fairy money.</p><p>Oxford University Museum of Natural History @morethanadodo <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/fossils" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fossils</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Museums" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Museums</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Crinoids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Crinoids</span></a></p>

Manospondylus<p>In the Mesozoic there existed so-called crinoid barges, which were formed by sea lilies attaching themselves to the bottom of floating tree trunks. Some like Seirocrinus could grow up to 26 metres tall. Such barges do not exist anymore today, as the evolution of shipworms has vastly reduced the amount of driftwood in the oceans. <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/fossil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fossil</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/fossils" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fossils</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/Mesozoic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mesozoic</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/jurassic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>jurassic</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/stippling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>stippling</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/stipplingart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>stipplingart</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/paleoart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>paleoart</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/paleontology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>paleontology</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/crinoid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>crinoid</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/crinoids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>crinoids</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/sealilies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sealilies</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/ammonite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ammonite</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/brachiopod" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>brachiopod</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/driftwood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>driftwood</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/invertebrates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>invertebrates</span></a></p>
