M1, SPECIES. PLATYCRINITES TUBERCULATUS., 
TUBERCULATED,BROAD-PLATED,LILY-SHAPED ANIMAL. 
Specific Character. 
A Crinoidal animal, having its pelvis marked with saucer-shaped, five tu- 
bercles. Scapule of greater length than breadth, having each three series of 
tubercles. 
Column unascertained. 
Locality. 
The Mountain Lime strata. 
Description. 
The Rev. Professor Bucxianp kindly allowed me to examine the Crinoidal 
remains in the Ashmolean collection at Oxford, many of which once belonged 
to Lluid. Among these I discovered the superior portion of this animal (fig. 
1, and 2.) which I consider entitled to specific distinction ; and although I am 
well aware that the characters as above given, are scarcely sufficient to establish 
this claim, yet I cannot doubt but that future researches will prove the correct- 
ness of this suggestion.
