This is a very large European trilobite. It is a gigantic Ectillaenus giganteus from Portugal. This specimen is just huge - six and a half inches long and four and a half inches wide - this bug is wider than most trilobites are long! The striking color is fully natural, a beautiful dark orange. The detail is excellent - even the ''skin'' lines on the pleurons and tail are preserved. This is not only a collectible trilobite, this is one of the largest, most colorful European trilobites we've ever had.
