Cluster Of Juvenile Dikelokephalina Trilobites - With Pos/Neg Split
This is a cluster of four juvenile Dikelokephalina trilobites from the Fezouata Shale of Morocco. Almost of the specimens found of this species are quite large, sometimes reaching over a foot in length. But these are mere babies with the largest being .85" long. Includes both the positive and negative of the split.

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.
