Bargain, 3D Reedops Trilobite Fossils
These are authentic Reedops trilobite fossils quarried near Atchana, Morocco. These trilobites were found encased in hard limestone and have been prepared using mechanical tools to expose their detailed shell.
They are quite 3D and range from about 1 to 1 1/2" long. Some are prone, while some are partially enrolled. These are real trilobite fossils, not molds or casts. You can see eye facet preservation in many of the specimens. They are not perfect, many will have areas of shell restoration, surface weathering, or airscribe scratches from preparation. They are a great value for the price.
The photos are representative of the trilobites being sold, but are not the exact specimens that you will receive.

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.
