This week’s Fossil Friday is a complete phacopid trilobite from the Ordovician, still in its shale matrix. Trilobites are extinct arthropods with a distinctive three-lobed exoskeleton: a central axial lobe and the left and right pleural lobes.
This specimen was donated by Dr. Monika Shulz and is APS2013.002.
