Fig. 2. Epibionts on crinoids from the Skały Beds (upper part of complex XVII, Tortodus kockelianus Zone), Skały village, Holy Cross Mountains. A. Saccamminid foraminiferans on Gilbertsocrinus vetulus Moore and Jeffords, 1968, GIUS−4−2445/3. B, C. Schyschcatocrinus creber Dubatolova, 1975 malformed by attachment of the brachiopod Poloniproductus? sp.; stereomic overgrowth indicates that the host was alive when fouled. B. Root appendage, GIUS−4−2445/11. C. Stem fragment, GIUS−4−2445/12. D. Cyrtinitid brachiopod on Tantalocrinus scutellus Le Menn, 1985, GIUS−4−2445/14. E, F. Rugose coral Adradosia? sp. on Schyschcatocrinus creber Dubatolova, 1975; stereomic response indicates that both epibionts and the hosts were alive contemporaneously. E. Arrows indicate later attachment of juvenile crinoids (holdfasts), GIUS−4−2445/4. F. Cluster of three individuals; note significant stereomic overgrowth (F1) and complete boreholes (Trypanites?) on coral on opposite side of pluricolumnal (F2), GIUS−4−2445/5. G. Tabulate coral Favosites sp. on Tantalocrinus scutellus Le Menn, 1985; oblique orientation of the coral may indicate that the crinoid stalk was upright during epibiont growth, GIUS−4−2445/9. Scale bars 1 mm.
