[Taxacom] Sea Urchin Descriptions

[Dave Roberts]

Have you tried

http://www.nhm.ac.uk/research-curation/research/projects/echinoid-directory

which is described as:
An open-community project to make high-quality taxonomic data and  
images of echinoids, Recent and fossil, freely available on the Web.  
It currently covers about 95% of all named genera. Illustrations of  
the type species of each genus are provided together with information  
on its key diagnostic characters, its stratigraphical and geographical  
distribution, species currently assigned with confidence to the genus  
(not necessarily exhaustive), and pertinent scientific publications.  
Dichotomous keys are provided at all levels to aid identification, and  
are fully illustrated. There are also sections on the morphology and  
biology of this group along with a taxonomic index.
