2.4" Paralejurus Trilobite Fossil - "Flying" Preparation
The preparation on this Paralejurus trilobite is spectacular. All of the small details such as terrace lines on the shell and tiny eye facets are visible with no air abrasive burning or airscribe dings. Most of the limestone has been removed from underneath the trilobite, leaving it flying above the rock in a very aesthetic pose. A real amazing trilobite specimen.
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.
