Tales From the Shale Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Found this today in the Platteville formation, SW Wisconsin. In the Mifflin member specifically. From what I see, it looks like a trilobite cephalon? I'm thinking Thaleops ovata. (Cap for scale) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsaacTheFossilMan Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) I agree, but, please try to not use arbitrary objects such as bottle caps for "scale". Such objects differ vastly from different products, and I can guarantee either none, or a small portion of the readers will have one at hand.
