I found this little guy last weekend in the Whitby formation (Upper Ordovician) of Craigleith, Ontario.

Any ideas? Did a small amount of searching and to me it looks like Triarthrus eatoni.

It is Triarthrus eatoni. Their cranidia moults are abundant, but thoracic parts are less common. Good find. :)
