Coosella Trilobite from Weeks FormationDescription: This trilobite is a rare member of the family Crecicephalidae known as Coosella Type I. It has not as yet been sceientifically described, so the species has not yet been named. It differs from another from the region, known as Coosella Type 2 by virtue of a straighter thoracic profile and wider pygidium. Both are quite rarely offered for sale, with this exceptional example (NO RESTORATION) offered at a most affordable price.
