This is a very fine specimen of Dalmanites limulurus from the Silurian of New York. The trilobite is somewhat inflated and wonderfully articulated. The compound eyes stick up above the flat, sleek carapace of the trilobite and display the individual lenses. The genal spines and the caudal spine are easily seen. The specimen has great color and contrast. It is well positioned on the semi-rectangular plate of matrix. This is a fine example of this "classic" Silurian trilobite from the Rochester Shale.
