Large Hollardops Trilobite - Different Species
This is a large example of an unusual species of what I believe is a Hollardops. Unlike the common Hollardops mesocristata, the entire head is covered in small bumps. It also comes from a different location, Oued ghris, Morocco where the Saharops and Parahomalonotus are found.
The specimen is quite larger for a Hollardops and would be 2.5" in length if fully outstretched. It's 3D, well prepared with great surface detail and has wonderful eye preservation. The only restoration on the specimen is some minor touchups of surface scratches from preparation which I did myself.
