Two Ordovician Fossil Starfish (Petraster?) - Morocco

This is a section of rock from the Ordovician aged Tioririne Formation containing a pair of fossil starfishs probably of the genus Petraster. The orange coloration is due to the oxidization of iron pyrite that originally preserved them. Both starfish have some areas of restoration.
