Trilobite (T5)
$425.00
Notes specific to this specimen:
DEATH FLOW specimen- Here is a very rare and unusual piece showing a complete Elrathia triloibite caught in the midst of the “Death Flow” megaspecimen we uncovered in 2004. You can see the mayhem that accompanied the mudslide- with hundreds of trilibites and trilobite parts both large and small, all mashed together surrounding it. The fact this one is intact and complete indicates the force of the slide was probably dissipating by the time it reached this spot. But it was buried and succumbed nonetheless. Professionally prepared using air-abrade. We found other specimens similar to this but they are already in museums.

UNIT: Wheeler Shale Formation
SITE: Millard County, Wyoming
