briefly noted certain differences between this specimen and the two types of compressa 

 from station 192, and mentioned some features of fragments of a larger individual 

 taken with it. 



In 1908 I recorded this species as Thalassometra compressa from Albatross station 

 5110. Under the name Parametra compressa I recorded two specimens from Albatross 

 stations 5166 and 5255 in 1909, and 18 specimens from stations 5279, 5325, 5367, 5411, 

 5519, 5523, and 5536 in 1911, giving brief notes on the latter. 



In my memoir on the crinoids of the Indian Ocean published in 1912 these Philip- 

 pine records were included under Parametra compressa. 



In 1913 under the name Parametra granulata I published a note on the specimen 

 from Challenger station 201 which I had examined at the British Museum in 1910, 

 citing certain differences between it and the two specimens of P. compressa from station 

 192, with which I compared it directly. 



In 1914 Prof. Frank Wigglesworth Clarke and Dr. W. C. Wheeler published a 

 chemical analysis of the skeleton of Parametra granulata based upon material from the 

 Philippines which I had given them. Their analysis was republished in 1922. 



In my report upon the unstalked crinoids of the Siboga expedition published in 

 1918 I inserted granulata in a key to the species of Parametra and recorded and gave 

 notes on a young specimen from station 105. 



In 1928 Prof. Torsten Gislen gave additional notes on the Challenger specimen 

 from station 201 which he had examined in London.
