Description:
Echini from the Palaeozoic formations are rare, and rarer still is it to find a new form of one of the more specialized genera in good condition of preservation. It was a keen pleasure to me, therefore, when my friend Dr. F. A. Bather, of the British Museum, recently gave me the privilege of studying and reporting on the specimen here described. It proves to be a species of the highly specialized genus Lepidesthes from the Lower Carboniferous, and was sent to Dr. Bather for study by the authorities of the Hancock Museum, Newcastle-on-Tyne.
