PREFACE 



It was most gratifying to me to be honored with a request to 

 prepare an account of the crinoids of the State University of 

 Iowa's Barbados-Antigua Expedition for I have myself visited 

 Barbados four, and Antigua three times in connection with my 

 studies on the terrestrial fauna of the West Indies, and I natur- 

 ally take a keen interest in everything that concerns these 

 islands. 



Perhaps it may not be out of place here to list the titles of my 

 previous contributions to the zoological literature of the Lesser 

 Antilles. These are the following:
