Product Description

Trilobites are a type of extinct arthropod probably most closely related to modern Horseshoe Crabs. With a growing number of predators and adapted to diverse habitats, various species of trilobites developed complex eyes, retractable antennae, and even protective spines. Trilobites range in size from a fraction of an inch to over two feet in length.

Trilobite exoskeletons were composed of extremely hard calcite and calcium phosphate minerals to protect the soft internal organs, and as a result, they are quite well represented in the fossil record.

This particular specimen is from the species Drotops and was found in Morocco. It’s 100 million years old (Cretaceous Period).
