Trilobite burrows?


Eastonian

Recommended Posts

Here's a specimen I picked up last year from the St. Leon, Indiana, road cut. The site is late Ordovician in the Waynesville formation. My guess is that it's a trace fossil that shows the convex hyporelief of two trilobite burrows. Each borrow is approximately 4 mm long, and is 2 mm of the other edge of one burrow to the outer edge of the other. In the second image, you'll also see what I believe could be pygidium or cephalon impressions on the left side, about two thirds down.

Not to highjack your post, but do you think this is a track too? Towards the top of course.

Found at wrens nest, England which is famous for trilobites.
