Calceocrinidae

Calceocrinus Hall, 1852, a relative of Calceocrinidae — not Calceocrinidae itself

Not Calceocrinidae. This is Calceocrinus Hall, 1852, a relative — both are Calceocrinidae.

Time the record covers

At least 168 million years on record.

The record covers at least 458.2 Mya to 290.1 Mya. No occurrence read is dated outside 471.3 Mya to 283.3 Mya.

248 occurrences of Calceocrinidae on record, most of them in the Ordovician. Bar height is expected occurrences, not a count: each fossil is spread across the span it is dated to, so a tall narrow bar means tight dating and a low wide one means loose.

When

248 occurrences

These are dates about fossils, not the animal: the record can only begin after it arose and end before it died out, so either end may reach further. Shares are expected occurrences: a fossil dated to a span is counted partly in each period it straddles. More on what this infers.

Found in the same rock

1,703 taxa

The Paleobiology Database records 171 sites for Calceocrinidae, and this reads all of them. The number is how many of those sites it was catalogued from too. The 24 sharing the most are listed.

This is not a list of everything alive at the time. It is only what has come out of the same ground as this animal and been written down.

Entered from

57 references

Each of the 248 occurrences read was entered from one of these publications, ordered by how many each accounts for. This is not a search for papers mentioning the name. 45 further references are not listed. Entries link to doi.org where the Paleobiology Database holds an identifier, and to its own record where it does not. Relayed as the Paleobiology Database holds them, not checked against what they resolve to.
