This is a very nice Mississippian trilobite. It is a fine Breviphillipsia sampsoni from the Choteau Formation of Missouri. As everyone knows, complete Carboniferous trilobites are quite rare. This bug is inflated and well preserved. The fossil is extremely detailed, has great color and contrast, and is well showcased on the squared matrix block. This is a very nice example of a Breviphillipsia trilobite.
