Excerpt from Catalogue of the Echinodermata in the Australian Museum, Vol. 1: Echini, Desmosticha and Petalosticha The object of this Catalogue is to (1) give a list of the Echin in the Museum Collection; (2) to record correct habitats of the Australian species and the localities of such as have been met with by our Collectors, thereby showing the distribution of fauna; and lastly (3) to point out our deficiencies, in the hope that our friends in other countries may feel inclined to fill up some of the numerous gaps by donations or offers of exchange.
