Ruger9a Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 Hello everyone. Can anyone tell me what type of Trilobite this is? All I know about this fossil is it came from New York in a batch of unprepped fossils.

Fossildude19 Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 Sometimes, it can take anywhere from 2 days to 3 weeks, to get an ID. Sometimes, never. Your mileage may vary. Some patience is required. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 IPFOTM -- MAY - 2024 _________________________________________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
