| Summary | "Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 'Echinoderma' to 'Edward'" is a comprehensive scientific publication written in the late 19th to early 20th century. This volume of the encyclopaedia focuses on a range of subjects, including marine biology, specifically the group of animals known as Echinoderms. The content is structured to provide detailed information about various classifications and anatomical features of these organisms as well as their evolutionary history. The opening of this encyclopaedic slice introduces Echinoderms, or "urchin-skinned" animals, highlighting their significance in scientific study due to their distinctive lime-based outer shells. It accounts for historical contributions of eminent naturalists who identified and classified Echinoderms up to the mid-19th century and discusses foundational discoveries regarding their anatomy and evolutionary relationships. The text hints at the ongoing debates and advancements in Echinoderm research, emphasizing the complexity and diversity of this group throughout both contemporary studies and fossil records.
