The Great Gerd Geyer has named a new trilobite species in my honor: Acanthomicmacca morrisoni. Included among the various species of Acanthomicmacca are: A. walcotti, A. neltneri, A. hupei n. sp., named after Charles Walcott, Louis Neltner and Pierre Hupé. I’m especially grateful to be immortalized with some of the legends of trilobite research and discovery.
