| Abstract |
A specimen of the holectypid echinoid Coenholectypus larteti (COTTEAU, 1869), from the 'Echinoid Marker Bed' of Member C (Natih Formation, uppermost Middle Cenomanian, Cretaceous) at Jebel Madamar (central Oman Mountains, Sultanate of Oman), preserves periproctal plating. This is only the second example of such plating in the genus Coenholectypus. Previous records of periproctal and/or peristomial plating in holectypoids and other irregular echinoids are listed and briefly discussed. |
