The two others have the centrodorsal 17 and 2-i mm in diameter, with the dorsal pole i-i and 17 mm across respectively, the staggered ring of cirri being doubled for varying extents. In both there are c.

The distal edges of the radials and the immediately following ossicles are flared and ornamented to some extent with beading or more or less elongated tubercles (see fig. 5a). The distal median projections on the brachials may give the effect of a keel. Pc is on the left in each case, as usual; it has 8 segments and measures c. 2-3 mm, The first two segments are much enlarged and have very high dorsal crests. Pi is similar but slightly larger, with 9 or 10 segments and c. 2-8 mm long. Pa is much. Fig. 5. Eudiocrinus venustulus A. H. Clark, a. 'Anton Briiun' St. 21, S\V Burma. Arm br o-g mm.
