Dramatic Cornuproetus Moroccan Trilobite

Cornuproetus cornutus Trilobite Order Proetida Geological Time: Devonian Size: (25.4 mm = 1 inch): Trilobite is 23 mm long by 18 mm wide on a 90 by 53 mm matrix Fossil Site: Hamar Laghdad Formation, Djebel Issoumour, Alnif , Morocco Code: 06015 Price: $95.00 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.. 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. See my other offerings for an example of the morphologically similar genus Dimuproetus.
