2.7" Kayserops Trilobite With Brachiopods - Bou Lachrhal, Morocco
This is a 2.7" long Kayserops megaspina trilobite from Bou Lachrhal, Morocco. While it is naturally missing some spine tips (lost prior to fossilization) it's nicely prepared with clean eye facets in both eyes. There is a brachiopod fossil next to the left genal spine and a larger brachiopod underneath it's head.
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.
