I try to find my own rather than buy fossils but I had to have this one.....

An enrolled Flexicalymene from a local quarry in Ontario that was too nice to pass up. Roughly 0.75" across.

Stunning! 

I'm not surprised you couldn't pass it up. 

It's incredible. :trilo::wub:

Sick detail!

I love these little roller "duckies". Very well-prepared and virtually flawless - not too common a trait in that area. :trilo:

I'm a sucker for complete trilos and this one takes the cake. Love the texture of the.....shell. Is there a scientific name for the shell of a trilobite?

"Trilobites survived for a total of three hundred million years, almost the whole duration of the Palaeozoic era: who are we johnny-come-latelies to label them as either ‘primitive’ or ‘unsuccessful’? Men have so far survived half a per cent as long."  - Richard Fortey, Trilobite: Eyewitness to Evolution.
