Mooreocrinus and Ureocrinus gen. nov., with Notes on the family Cromyocrinidae

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

In the course of discussions on Echinoderms between the senior and junior authors, the family Cromyocrinidae came under scrutiny and in view of a vital link of evidence in the form of a Pennsylvanian (Upper Carboniferous) specimen of Ulocrinus buttsi Miller and Gurley with the arms attached, found by the junior author a few years ago, the following interpretation of the family is suggested.
