Pretty cool. We get the echinoids, but not the starfish. Thanks for posting...

On the contrary, there is even a species of starfish named after Austin Texas.
Austinaster McCarteri (re-named Crateraster recently) can be found in the Austin chalk.
Not so far from you are the other "Brittle stars" & Betelgeusia they can be found in Waco.
Stay tuned I have more to come.
