This is a centerpiece trilobite fossil. It is a beautifully sculpted specimen of Paralejurus hamlagdadicus from the Devonian of Morocco. This fine specimen was meticulously prepared under a microscope in the EXTINCTIONS Prep Lab here in Colorado. The trilobite is very 3-D and extremely inflated. The wonderfully articulated bug is superbly preserved and exhibits excellent detail. The crescent-shaped eyes are beautifully displayed. The dark brown trilobite contrasts extremely well with the light-colored, sculpted limestone. But wait, there's more! The entire right side of this critter has been prepared free-standing- the head, tail and each and every pleuron has been fully exposed! Most of this trilobite only has the THIN SHELL intact - there is no rock to obscure its features! The delicate preparation needed to preform this miracle is simply incredible - how many prep artists could pull this off? The fossil is beautifully sleak and simply spectacular. This is easily the most amazing example of Paralejurus we have ever prepared.
