Ductina vietnamica Trilobite Vietnam Eifelian and Pragian stages - Devonian Age 380 Million Years old. Trilobites are a fossil group of extinct marine arthropods that form the class Trilobita. Trilobites form one of the earliest known groups of arthropods.The first appearance of trilobites in the fossil record defines the base of the Atdabanian stage of the Early Cambrian period (521 million years ago). They were hard-shelled, segmented creatures that lived in Earth's ancient seas. They are considered to be one of our planet's earliest complex life-forms and are one of the key signat- 1 comment

Pycnostylus Coral with Favositdae Coral Helderberg Limestone, found Central City area, Somerset County, PA; probably transported from Bedford County, PA Devonian Age (~400 Million Years ago) Pycnostylus Ecology: stationary intermediate-level epifaunal microcarnivore. The genus Pycnostylus differs from Amplexus only in the circumstance that it grows in colonies of compound and apparently fasciculated corallites. Favosites is an extinct genus of tabulate coral characterized by polygonal closely packed corallites (giving it the common name "honeycomb coral"). The walls between corallites -

Favosites Coral Helderberg Limestone, found Central City area, Somerset County, PA; probably transported from Bedford County, PA Devonian Age (~400 Million Years ago) Favosites is an extinct genus of tabulate coral characterized by polygonal closely packed corallites (giving it the common name "honeycomb coral"). The walls between corallites are pierced by pores known as mural pores which allowed transfer of nutrients between polyps. Favosites, like all coral, thrived in warm sunlit seas, forming colorful reefs, feeding by filtering microscopic plankton with their stinging tentacles.-

Rugose (Horn) Coral, Arizona Payson, Arizona,USA Devonian age (~380 million years ago) The coral has long ago agatized or fossilized but still retains the coral horn pattern that makes these pieces unique in the horn coral family. The Rugosa, also called the Tetracorallia, are an extinct order of solitary and colonial corals that were abundant in Middle Ordovician to Late Permian seas. Solitary rugosans (e.g., Caninia, Lophophyllidium, Neozaphrentis, Streptelasma) are often referred to as horn corals because of a unique horn-shaped chamber with a wrinkled, or rugose, wall.
