 Description:
Fine example of the genus, this is a member of the genus Leonaspis.
While some prefer Kettnersapis over Leonaspis based upon the pygidial
spines, it is definitely a desirable member of the taxon. See my
other offerings for a species possessing a long occipital spine
which has earned it the species name spinicurva.. |
