Pennsylvania Trilobite Identification Please

Recommended Posts

Hi. I was wondering if anyone could tell me the name of this type of Trilobite that I've been finding in the Shriver Formation in Central Pennsylvania? The one picture is of a Cephalon and the rest are mostly the tail ends. Thank you.

The spiny odontopleurid is Kettneraspis cf. callicera.  The cephalon and pygidia can be labeled conservatively as Dalmanitidae sp.

Great, thanks so much for the identification. That's a big help. I'll definitely post pictures if I ever find a complete example.
