SYNONYMY. 



This second series of lists contains the Synonymy, which I look upon as 

 the history of the species (not its Natural History). The synonymes quoted 



have all been taken from the originals unless otherwise marked (teste ), 



giving the authority for their accuracy. The (!) therefore does not mean 

 that I have verified the quotation, but that I have examined authentic 

 specimens. The genera adopted in this revision, as well as the species in 

 their respective genera, are arranged alphabetically. In the descriptive part 

 of the text the references for the name adopted and for the original name 

 alone are given ; the notation is as follows : — 



Temnopleurus toreumaticus 



Cidaris toreumatica ! Klein, 1734, Nat. Disp. Ec-h. 

 Temnopleurus toreumaticus] Agass. 1841, Mouog. Scut. 



Amblypneustes griseus 



Echinus griseus! Lam. 1816, An. s. Vert. 

 Amblypneustes r/riseus\ Agass. 1841, Monog. Scut. 



the character of the type, of the original name, always showing the rela- 

 tions of the specific and generic names at the time the species was described, 

 as in the Chronological List. Not to introduce too many doubtful syno- 

 nymes, a general concordance of all the names given to Echini, including 

 MS. names mentioned, is added, where doubtful synonymes will be found 

 recorded by referring them to some species of this Revision ; this may 

 serve as a ready reference for all the known species. To supplement the 

 Chronological, Synonymic, and Alphabetical Lists, I shall add a Systematic 

 Index of the species, mentioned in this Revision, giving the original name 

 and the principal localities. As it was found impossible to add to each 

 citation a locality without introducing too much doubtful material, only 

 accurate localities are quoted. For each species I have given a complete 

 list of all the localities from which specimens are recorded, with their 

 authorities, indicating at the same time by the usual mark (!) whenever 

 I have seen the specimens mentioned. In the Geographical Lists the 

 species found in any one locality will be so arranged as to show the faunal 

 peculiarity of a region, while the exact range of each species is always 

 carefully specified with its synonymy. (*) denotes that specimens are in 

 the Coll. M. C. Z.
