 which' do not imbricate and are covered with numerous small 

 tubercles. Each ambulacral plate has one large tubercle and 

 one pair of pores (?) In the primary plates the pores occupy 

 the outer third of the ambulacrum, while in the secondary 

 plates the}' are placed on the outer edge of the ambulacrum. 

 Each pair of pores is placed in an oval depression. Ambu- 

 lacral plates imbricate slightly.
