Sinoeocriunz globus is a type eocrinoidea a group of ancient animals that lived during the Cambrian Period (~500 million years ago). They were echinoderms with a radial body plan similar to starfishes, though much more primitive. These Sinoeocriunz globus had the shape of a sphere. Now extinct, these animals have left an impressive fossil record, with more than 200 species described from China’s Huangshan Formation.
