Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Illinois State Museum of Natural History The work of bringing the following material together has not been done in the spirit of idle inquiry into things of small moment but for the purpose of learning of events which have had valuable results. There is a dearth of records concerning the Museum. For long periods of years no catalogues were made. The catalogues that were begun within the last thirty years have not been made complete: But few curator's reports have ever been published. The facts presented have been found in the State Laws, Geo logical Survey Reports, in two Curator's Reports, in letters and from conversation with people acquainted with the institution. If the history of a dozen or more like institutions in the country were written there would doubtless be presented facts which would be of valuable service to those institutions and render them more capable of efficiently carrying out the purpose of their foundation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin No; 10 of the Illinois State Museum of Natural History: New Species of Echinodermata and a New Crustacean From the Palaeozoic Rocks There are, therefore, twenty-nine arms and twenty-nine ambulacral openings to the vault in this species. The interradial areas all connect with the plates of the vault. In each regular interradial area the first plate is about the size of a second primary radial. It is followed by two smaller plates in the second range, and these by two smaller plates in the third range, and these by a single elongated plate in the fourth range, in each of three areas, that unites with two plates belonging to the vault. In the other area there are two elongated plates, in the fourth range, that unite with the plates of the vault. There is an elongated plate in each intersecondary ares that separates the quaternary plates and unites with the plates of the vault in some of the areas. There are ten plates in the azygous area. The first one is in line with the first primary radials, but somewhat smaller. It is followed by two plates in the second range, three in the third, two in the fourth, and two narrow elongated plates in the fifth range, that unite with the plates of the vault. The vault is highly convex, depressed toward the interradial areas, and covered by numerous polygonal plates, about one fourth of which bear spines. The proboscis is central, but broken off in our specimen. This is the first twenty-nine armed species described from the Burlington Group, and so different from all thirty-armed species that no comparison with any of them is necessary. Found by F.A. Sampson, in whose honor the specific name is proposed, in the Burlington Group at Sedalia, Missouri, and now in his collection. Also found by R. A. Blair, and in the collection of S. A. Miller.
