This is an excellent specimen of Nephrolenellus geniculatus from the Pioche Formation of Nevada. This specimen was recently acquired from a major trilobite collection.

The specimen has intact the textbook long thoracic spines and worm-like opisthothorax, which is quite unusual. The fossil is well showcased on a large matrix plate. This is an excellent specimen of the many-segmented trilobite, Nephrolenellus.
