BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE NEOCRINOIDEA. 
The following list does not pretend to be a complete Bibliography of the Neocrinoidea, 
i.c., to give a reference to every description of a fossil Crinoid which has appeared in the 
countless publications upon the Paleontology of the Secondary and Tertiary Periods. 
Neither is it meant to include every notice of a recent Crinoid in faunal and other lists. 
The numerous controversial references to fossil forms in epistolary communications to 
the Neues Jahrbuch by von Buch, von Meyer, and others are also mostly omitted, 
and must be sought for in the excellent Bibliography of de Koninck and le Hon. 
But I have endeavoured to make the accompanying list complete for the two 
following classes of works :—(1) all those containing descriptions of new species of recent 
Crinoids; (2) all those which, though dealing principally with Paleocrinoids or with 
other Echinoderms, contain valuable information upon the Morphology of the Crinoids 
generally. The literature of the Pelmatozoa has increased at a very rapid rate since the 
publication of the admirable Bibliography by de Koninck and le Hon in 1854, which 
contained a chronological list of nearly all the earlier works on the subject." We may 
hope ere long for a supplement to this as regards the Paleeocrinoids from Messrs. Wach- 
smuth and Springer; and I trust in the course of time to be able to complete the 
following list by the addition of references to works on general paleontology which 
contain notices of Neoerinoids.
