Dear,
Few years ago I published a paper to show that Echiometra miocenica
(a foosil sea-urchin from Miocen carbonate layers) was the same as
the modern Echinometra mathaei the most common sea-urchin of the
Indo-Pacific coasts.
Do demonstrate this analogie we made a biometrical study (largest
diameter bversus hight) of various population of Echinometra mathei.
Are you interested by the paper. Title is :
- NEGRETTI B., PHILIPPE M., SOUDET H.J., THOMASSIN B.A., OGGIANO G.,
1990. Echinometra miocenica Loriol, échinide miocène, synonyme
d'Echinometra mathaei (Blainville), actuel : biogéographie et
paléoécologie. Geobios, 23 (4) : 445-459.
Good luck.
Scheers.
