Here is one big-eyed bug! This is a complete Coltraneia (=Treveropyge) prorotundifrons from the Devonian of Morocco. This is a very difficult trilobite to obtain in good condition - and this one is superb! One glance will tell you what this trilobite is famous for - the huge compound eyes that are elevated above the glabella. This trilobite must have been able to see almost 360 degrees. One of the large eyes preserves the individual lenses in great condition while the other eye is nearly perfect! The trilobite is very 3-dimensional and extremely inflated. This wonderfully articulated specimen has striking, dark brown color and contrasts beautifully with the sculpted grey matrix. This is a fabulous example of one of the most sought-after non-spiny trilobites from Morocco.
