Here is a wonderful plate of trilobites from the Middle Cambrian ''Red Beds'' of Utah. There are many specimens of Elrathia kingi on this plate. All of these trilobites are natural to the plate - no compositing or addition of trilobites has been done to this specimen. Three of the Elrathia are complete with both free cheeks intact and tightly attached. The brownish-red color of the trilobites contrasts beautifully with the pinkish matrix. The natural plate of shale also contains many partials and an enrolled trilobite (rare). This is a very collectible multiple specimen of three fully complete trilobites from the Wheeler Shale.
