. Bulletin of the British Museum (Natural History), Geology. CRETACEOUS ECHINODERMS FROM WILMINGTON 151. 5 mm -I Fig. 59 Camera lucida drawing of oral plating in Holaster bischoffi () from the Lower Cenomanian of Wilmington. This species differs from H. subglobosus in a number of respects and the two cannot be confused when seen side by side. H. bischoffi differs from similar-sized H. subglobosus in having fewer ambulacral plates per column (Fig. 57), a more rectangular profile with the anterior more vertical and less convex and the dorsal surface more flat, and the periproct situated proportion- ally higher on the posterior surface (Fig. 56, and compare Pis 30 & 31). In the apical disc of H. bischoffi ocular IV and genital 3 barely touch (Fig. 58), whereas in H. subglobosus these two plates have a considerably broader contact (Fig. 60).
