Trilobite Association (2xBarrandeops & Gerastos)
This is an aesthetic association of three trilobites from Ofaten, Morocco. There is a pair of Barrandeops and a small Gerastos trilobite naturally associated on the same piece of limestone. The rock has been carefully prepared using mechanical tools and sculpted to create a nice, free-standing display.
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.
