Five Lonchodomas Trilobites With Foulonia - Fezouata Formation
Here is a really cool trilobite plate featuring five Lonchodomas (Ampyx) trilobites along with a solitary Foulonia. It comes from the Upper Fezouata Formation of Morocco. The entire piece measures 9 x 5.2" with the Foulonia being 2" long. The trilobites are generally oriented in a line which is commonly seen at this location, and has been theorized to represent fossilized migratory behavior.

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.
