Abstract
DR. H. L. CLARK'S first papers on Australian echinoderms appeared in 1909 when he described the Australian forms in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, and the Thetis collection made off New South Wales and at Lord Howe Island. They proved to be the forerunners of a series, continued to the present day*, in which he has made known far more about Australian echinoderms than any other man. He has described the collection of the Western Australian Museum (1914) ; the many echinoderms, excepting the holothurians, taken by the Endeavour off the coasts of Queensland, New South Wales, Tasmania, Victoria, South and Western Australia (1916) ; a small collection from Western Australia (1923) and another from the Barrier Reef (1926) ; the very large collection, other than the holothurians, of the South Australian Museum (1928), mostly southern forms ; and the echinoderms, other than asteroids, of the Barrier Reef Expedition (1932).
