Here is a very uncommon plate of Chinese trilobites. There is a large Psilocephalina lubrica and a nice example of Yuepingia sp. on this slab of Ordovician limestone. These distinct trilobites are inflated and exhibit fine detail. Both bugs have the free cheeks intact, which is quite unusual. The large pygidia are easily seen, and the individual thoracic segments are clearly defined. The trilobites have natural, dark coloration and contrast decently with the dark grey matrix. The bugs are well showcased on the almost rectangular plate of limestone. This is an unusual multiple specimen of these uncommon trilobites from the Ordovician of China.

This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
