Three Adrisiops Weugi Trilobites - Morocco
This is a really cool association of three well prepared Adrisiops weugi trilobites quarried near Mrakib, Morocco. The largest trilobite would be about 2" long if outstretched. The piece has been wonderfully prepared and the base of the rock cut flat so that it stands up nicely without the need for a display stand.
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.
