2" Anacheirurus (Lehua) Trilobite - Fezouata Formation

This is an very nice, spiny, 2" long Anacheirurus trilobite from the Fezouata Formation of Morocco. This is a fairly rare trilobite that has often been labeled as Lehua in the past. This is probably the better example of this trilobite which we have had for sale.

About Trilobites

Trilobites are an extinct class of marine arthropods that thrived for nearly 270 million years, from the early Cambrian to the end of the Permian period (around 521 to 252 million years ago). They are one of the most successful and diverse groups in the history of life, with over 25,000 described species spanning a wide range of sizes, shapes, and ecological niches. Known for their distinctive, segmented exoskeletons, trilobites provide invaluable insights into the evolutionary history of arthropods and the dynamics of ancient marine ecosystems.
