Texas is known worldwide as a rich resource for the intricate
Cretaceous-age echinoids widely sought by professional and amateur
paleontologists. With much of the scientific literature on Texas
Cretaceous echinoids decades old, here is an updated and detailed
guide for identifying this rich fossil fauna. After a brief
description of the climatic events that led to the formation of
these marine deposits, readers are introduced to the terminology
needed to understand the morphology and biology of echinoids. More
than 350 high-quality color photographs and detailed descriptions
provide a visual guide to identifying, usually to the species
level, most of the Cretaceous echinoids found in Texas. The
information will be of interest to nature lovers, new and advanced
collectors, and students of invertebrate paleontology looking for
