hrguy54 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I was told these pieces may be uncommon if not rare so I thought I'd share with the Forum. I believe this trilobite is a Tricopelta. I found it just south of Dayton, Ohio where part of a long hill had been taken flattened for a new housing development. It was tucked inside the hollow top of a horn coral. I believe this is a headless Ceraurinus icarus. I found it in the Caesers Creek area in Ohio. It needed very little prep.

hrguy54 Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 This is an Echinoderm Cyclocystoid. I found it in a roadcut in Cincinnati. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I think that Ceraurinus is one of the coolest looking trilos I've ever seen. Congratulations on the rare finds.
