This is a beautiful plate of unusual spiny trilobites. There are two large ''Devil-Horned'' Cyphaspis and a Proetus granulosus on the slab. You can easily see how these trilobites got their demonic nickname - they have a pair of spiny ''horns'' growing out of their heads. Both Cyphaspis specimens have been prepared with these ''Devil Horns'' free-standing, as well as the genal spines and the long axial spines. There is also an excellent Proetus granulosus naturally positioned between the two Cyphaspis. All three bugs have great detail and display beautifully. And this is a natural triple - all three specimens are preserved as they were when they were buried millions of years ago. This is a very collectible multiple plate of this ''devilish'' spiny trilobite.
