    Description

    Clypeaster rosaceous:
    Class Echinoidea
    Pliocene
    Celooshatchee Formation
    S.W. Florida
    Size: Specimen is a large 5 7/16” in diameter.
    Presented is an excellent example of this hard to find echinoid species.
    In these animals the five arms have been incorporated into the body and the ossicles form a rigid test with pedicellariae and moveable spines. They also have tube feet that aid the spines in locomotion. The mouth is on the lower surface and has a distinctive chewing apparatus. Enclosed is my original listing from when I was a boutique seller
    with the Fossilmall website circa 2109.
    Unfortunately, due to supply chain disruptions and customs
    issues I will no longer ship to China. Yes, Japan,
    South Korea, Singapore and Thailand are, as always, welcome to bid.
    I SHIP INTERNATIONAL AND WORLDWIDE.
    .00 Int. Shipping Cost.
    (Note: Canadian shipping costs are less.)
