This is a plate of classic fossils from a world-famous site. It is an Eldredgeops milleri and a pair of Paraspirifer bownockeri from the Silica Shale of Ohio. This trilobite differs from Phacops in the number of eye facets, and in the fact that it has round, rather than angular, eye sockets. The trilobite is outstretched and has excellent dark brown color and great contrast. The large brachs are very inflated and were cleaned with an air abrasive machine, not acid etched. The fossils are well showcased on the rectangular plate of matrix. This is a very displayable specimen of two different animals from the Devonian sea.
