Name: Ceratarges sp. aff. armatus, Order Lichida, Subfamily Ceratarginae (Trilobites)
Age: Middle Devonian
Size: (25.4mm=1 inch): 50 mm long (including spines) by 33 mm wide on a 105 by 80 mm matrix
Location: Lamrakeb Formation, Alnif , Morocco
Code: MT277
Price: $725.00 - sold
 Description:
Well-preserved example of a member of the Order Lichida, Subfamily Ceratarginae
with dramatic cephalic spines and eyestalks prepared freestanding. A fine example
of this frequently sought-after species of alien aspect, with the specimen well-centered
on its light matrix. This one appears to be an intermediate form between armatus
and the spine-on-spine type seen infrequently (see my other offerings for a DRAMATIC
example), as shown by the small subspines seen on the pleurals. |
