YukonTrilobite Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Here's one of the head shields from the same location , which I don't think has any relation to the previously posted spiny pygidium ... This is the only type of cephalon I've recovered from that spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilDAWG Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Looks like some sort of harpid, perhaps along the lines of Scotoharpes. Very cool trilobite. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
