Most crinoids obtain their nutrition by spreading their feeding arms to sieve the passing sea water for microscopic organisms and detritus, they are attached to the sea bottom by a stalk. Crinoids comprise three basic sections; the stem, the calyx, and the arms. They inhabited and flourished in the warm shallow seas of the paleozoric era.
