 Description:
Elegant example of a member of the Order Phacopida, Subfamily Asteropyginae
with dramatic genal and pygidial spines. The Asteropyginae have recently
undergone extensive revision, with this example previously called
Neometacanthus, an allusion to its similarity to Metacanthina (now
called Hollardops). This is a good prone example of the type, well-centered
on its matrix base. |
