2.2" Tower-Eyed, Erbenochile Trilobite - Top Quality!

This is a top quality, 2.2" long, tower-eyed, Erbenochile trilobite from Foum Zguid, Morocco. The rock is much harder at this location, and more time consuming to prepare.

It is laid out very prone and the preparation was done by one of the best preparitors in the world and the results speak for themselves. This is as good as it gets.

Trilobites were a very diverse group of extinct marine arthropods. They first appeared in the fossil record in the Early Cambrian (521 million years ago) and went extinct during the Permian mass extinction (250 million years ago). They were one of the most successful of the early animals on our planet: over 25,000 species have been described, filling nearly every evolutionary niche. Due in large part to their hard exoskeletons (shells), they left an excellent fossil record.
