Here we offer a rare echinoid with spines from the lithographical limestone of Wattendorf. The spines offer a pleasing distribution pattern, the capsule is only lightly deformed. Eichnoids from the lithographical limestone are very rare but they seem to be more common in Wattendorf than in Eichstätt or Solnhofen itself. How ever echinoids with spines are rare regardless if they had been found in Solnhofen or at other sites.
