Excerpt from Catalogue of the Blastoidea in the Geological Department of the British Museum (Natural History): With an Account of the Morphology and Systematic Position of the Group, and a Revision of the Genera and Species, (Illustrated by 20 Lithographic Plates, &C.)

The present work is the result of our joint study of the Blastoidea, which has been carried on for the past seven years, though with a considerable amount of interruption owing to our official duties and to the pressure of other engagements. It originated in a strong desire to investigate the structure and relationships of this interesting group of extinct Echinoderms by the light of the recent advances in our knowledge of their living representatives.
