1.7" Flying Scotoharpes Trilobite - Top Quality Specimen

Here is a spectacular example of the Harpetida trilobite Scotoharpes sp. from Morocco. It has a very dramatic "head shield" which is often interpreted as a mechanism to help it stay on top of a soft ocean floor. This preglabellar ring (head shield) is covered in many sensory pits which may have held hairlike features when the trilobite was alive.

This specimen is pristine, laid out prone with less than 1% restoration along repaired cracks. It comes with a removable, wood base.
