This is a really cool trilobite association from Atchana, Morocco. There is a 3" long Zlichovaspis associated with a pair of Reedops. The surrounding limestone has been removed to create an aesthetic display piece of the three trilobites. Nice eye facet preservation in all of the trilobites.
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.
