Crinozoa, the Glossary
Crinozoa is a subphylum of mostly sessile echinoderms, of which the crinoids, or sea lilies and feather stars, are the only extant members.[1]

Arkarua
Arkarua adami is a small, Precambrian disk-like fossil with a raised center, a number of radial ridges on the rim, and a five-pointed central depression marked with radial lines of five small dots from the middle of the disk center.
Blastoid
Blastoids (class Blastoidea) are an extinct type of stemmed echinoderm, often referred to as sea buds.
Cambrian
The Cambrian is the first geological period of the Paleozoic Era, and the Phanerozoic Eon.
Crinoid
Crinoids are marine invertebrates that make up the class Crinoidea. Crinozoa and Crinoid are Paleozoic invertebrates.
Cystoidea
Cystoidea is a class of extinct crinozoan echinoderms, termed cystoids, that lived attached to the sea floor by stalks.
Echinoderm
An echinoderm is any deuterostomal animal of the phylum Echinodermata, which includes starfish, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars and sea cucumbers, as well as the sessile sea lilies or "stone lilies". Crinozoa and echinoderm are extant Cambrian first appearances.
Ediacaran
The Ediacaran is a geological period of the Neoproterozoic Era that spans 96 million years from the end of the Cryogenian Period at 635 Mya to the beginning of the Cambrian Period at 538.8 Mya.
Edrioasteroidea
Edrioasteroidea is an extinct class of echinoderms.
See Crinozoa and Edrioasteroidea
Eocrinoidea
The Eocrinoidea are an extinct class of echinoderms that lived between the Early Cambrian and Late Silurian periods.
Indonesia
Indonesia, officially the Republic of Indonesia, is a country in Southeast Asia and Oceania between the Indian and Pacific oceans.
List of echinoderm orders
This List of echinoderm orders concerns the various classes and orders into which taxonomists categorize the roughly 7000 extant species as well as the extinct species of the exclusively marine phylum Echinodermata.

Neontology
Neontology is a part of biology that, in contrast to paleontology, deals with living (or, more generally, recent) organisms.
Paracrinoidea
Paracrinoidea is an extinct class of blastozoan echinoderms.
See Crinozoa and Paracrinoidea
Sessility (motility)
Sessility is the biological property of an organism describing its lack of a means of self-locomotion.
