II.—A Collection of Egyptian Fossil Echinoidea
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Extract
The first collection of Egyptian fossils sent for determination by Captain Lyons, R.E., Director of the Egyptian Geological Survey, to the British Museum, includes an interesting series of Echinoidea, which has been intrusted to me for examination. It is hardly necessary to state that our knowledge of the fossil echinid faunas of Egypt is mainly due to M. P. de Loriol-le-Fort, who has described a large series in two admirable monographs.
