Ordovician Starfish (Petraster?) & Brittle Star (Ophiura) Fossils
This is a cool association of an Ordovician aged starfish (Petraster) and brittle star (Ophiura).
They come from the Tioririne Formation near Kaid rami, Morocco. The specimen shows an amazing amount of detail and the natural, orange coloration is due to the oxidization of iron pyrite.
