Synopsis
A cincinnaticrinid disparid crinoid, Serendipocrinus lamonti gen et sp. nov., is described from the Rawtheyan (Ashgill, Ordovician) of the Threave Glen Starfish Bed, Craighead Inlier, SW Scotland. This species has a robust, skyphosiform dorsal cup with low basals; uniserial, apinnulate arm s which branch isotomously at 1Br2 and 2Br3; and an anal series supported by the C superradial and D radial. This is the first true cincinnaticrinid to be described from the British Ordovician.
