Edited : back then i wrongly ided the specimen. Not a Neseuretus, rather a colpocoryphe. That's always happening to me when processing older stuff...

 

Hi all,

Now and then we read topics about trilobites molting.

While processing my trilos and entering them to my database,  i noticed i never posted this one on TFF (or anywhere by the way).

Some might find this one interesting (i do).

 

So, here it is :Colpocoryphe rouaulti 's molting : you can see it got 2 bodies,  the main one (old one) on the right and the new one attached to the head part.
