This is a very large European trilobite. It is an Ectillaenus giganteus from Portugal. This specimen is just huge - almost six inches long! The striking color is fully natural, a beautiful yellow-orange. The detail is excellent, even the "skin" lines on the doublure are preserved! The natural matrix plate is a full 11.5 inches long. This is not only a collectible trilobite, it is a very displayable one at that. This is one of the coolest European trilobites we've ever had.
