Notes  Classification: Although represented here as sister groups, Acroechinoidea, Carinacea and Irregularia actually form a set of nested clades (see image below). Due to the limitations of WoRMS this cannot be reflected in the database at present. [details]

Description: This group units the traditional groups of Camarodonta, Stirodonta and Irregularia. Although primitive irregular echinoids all have keeled teeth, cassiduloids retain teeth only in the earliest developmental stages and clypeasteroids have modified wedge-shaped teeth, holasteroids and spatangoids have secondarily lost their lantern and show no trace of a lantern at any stage. [details]
