This is a very unusual collection of Olenellus trilobites. These are juvenile Olenellus sp. from the Eager Formation of British Columbia. There are over 100 parts, hypostomas, partials, and complete trilobites on this plate. Many are juvenile growth stages, and possibly all of the stages are represented! You really need to look at this piece under a microscope to see everything that is preserved - see the second close-up photo for an overview. Again, there are dozens of tiny trilobites just teeming on this plate. I have seen plates of juvenile Olenellus before, but nothing quite like this!
