China Trilobite ID request #1

Recommended Posts

Hello folks.  I've been digging through my "unidentified" draw again and came across eight Trilobite requiring identification.  I cannot seem to locate my documentation, so, I am humbly requesting your help once again.  The information I do have on this Trilobite is it comes from Yunnan, China and is from the Cambrian period.  It  measures 25mm x 17mm.

I can't help with ID, but when you are trying to ID trilobites, it is best if you photograph them from directly above, not from oblique angles. 

The cephalon should point to the top of the picture:

Be sure to back away from the fossil a bit - and try to keep a steady hand - these pictures are a bit blurry.  :(
