Hi everyone, it's been awhile. Nice to be back to hunting again!! :)

My husband and I went to my favorite place over the weekend. As usual, I found what I went after..... Bugs!!!! Three of them are very nice and the others, well I'll take them. Any is better than coming away empty handed.

Thanks all..............

The trilobites look like Paladin perhaps. Any chance of some cephalon shots?

Hopefully one of the trilobite experts like Piranha or GerryK will weigh in with a more detailed ID.

The trilobite is Ditomopyge. The key feature is the presence of a medial preoccipital lobe on the glabella.

Ditomopyge has it and Paladin does not. I decolorized the photo so this feature is more easily seen.

There is a little bit "o" info.

Most of the Ditos are rolled.

As most of the Palas are found flat out.

Take a look at my avatar. That "special" lobe Piranha points out is missing.

Great finds! As you said at the beginning, any 'find' is a good 'find' whether it was what you were looking for or not, complete or not. Thanks for sharing.
