Here is a very rare association of trilobites from the Cambrian of China. These are Changaspis elongata (large) and Arthricocephalus pulchellus. These trilobites are occasionall found, but this is the first example we have seen of both types together! Changaspis has many thoracic segments with long pleural spines - this specimen is practically flawless. Arthricocephalus is an ovoid trilobite and is totally different in appearance to the Changaspis. These bugs are wonderfully articulated and exhibit very fine detail (better than the photo shows). This is a textbook pair of both of these extremely uncommon Cambrian trilobites.
