IV. SPECIES. PLATYCRIN1TES GRANULATUS 

 GRANULATED, BROAD-PLATED, LILY-SHAPED ANIMAL. 



Specific Character. 



A Crinoidal animal, with a saucer-shaped pelvis. Scapula; nearly square, 

 with a very small impression for the adhesion of the arms. External surface 

 granulated. Column unascertained. 



Locality. 

 In the Mountain Limestone of the Mendip Hills. 



Description. 



1o 



It is a small, slender, thin and neat species (fig. 1. to 3.) The granule 



(fig. 3.) on the scapulas are sometimes regularly arranged in series forming radii 

 extending from the horse-shoe-like impression into which the arm was inserted. 

 From the smallness of the horse-shoe-like impression I conceive that the arms 

 were formed of several joints. 



V. SPECIES. PLATYCRINITES STRIATUS. 

 STRIATED, BROAD-PLATED, LILY-SHAPED ANIMAL. 



Specific Character. 



A Crinoidal animal, with a pelvis formed of three pieces, drawn in near the 

 base, so as to form a projecting rim, by which it acquires a greater surface of 

 adhesion to the column. The five scapulae have only a small horse-shoe-like 

 impression at their tipper edge. Pelvis and scapulae externally striated. 

 Column unascertained.
