Here is an excellent specimen of Dalmanites limulurus from the Silurian of New York. This very large trilobite is prone and well displayed. The distinct bug is somewhat inflated and exhibits great detail. Both genal spines and the long caudal spine are nicely displayed. The individual lenses of the protruding, compound eyes are quite evident. The striking trilobite has very nice color and contrast and is well centered on the large, squared plate of shale. This is a fabulous display example of this classic trilobite from New York.
