Publisher's Synopsis
Nomina Systematica Generum Echinodermatum, compiled by Louis Agassiz, is a comprehensive catalog of echinoderm genera, both living and fossilized. Arranged alphabetically, this 1845 Latin text provides an extensive reference for zoologists and paleontologists. Each entry includes the author's name, the publication in which the genus was first described, the year of publication, etymology, and the family to which the genus belongs. This meticulous work offers invaluable insights into the classification and systematic nomenclature of echinoderms, representing a significant contribution to the field during the mid-19th century. It remains a vital resource for researchers studying the history and evolution of these fascinating marine invertebrates.
