Here is a nicely articulated Olenellus fowleri from the Lower Cambrian of Nevada. This trilobite is complete and exhibits wonderful detail. The crescent-shaped eyes are easily seen and the long pleural spines are just outstanding. The opisthothorax is uncommonly well preserved and the long ''tail spine'' is clearly defined. The trilobite has good color and contrast and is almost perfectly centered on the rectangular plate of shale. This is a very detailed example of this extremely old trilobite.
