Sweet Crotalocephalina & Reedops Trilobite Association
This is a natural association of a Crotalocephalina gibbus and a Reedops from Atchana, Morocco. The specimens has been painstakingly prepared to remove the surrounding limestone, leaving the trilobite fossils perched in an aesthetic display. The Crotalocephalina measures 3.1" long and has no restoration, the Reedops is 1.5" long and only has a tiny bit of restoration along a repaired crack through the 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.
