 Description:
Fine example of a member of the Order Proetida with many fine details
present. The most diagnostic features of this taxon are granulose
cephalon and thorax and the swept-back genal spines. Notice the fine
eye facets present in this example. The Proetidae were among the last
of the trilobites to go extinct in the Permian over 100 million years
later. This is a fine example of the type, offered here at an eminently
affordable price. |
