Isotelus2883 Posted May 3, 2023 Author Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) I forgot about Ampyxina! 3. Asaphida This example shows the right genal quite well.

Tidgy's Dad Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Love the Ampyxina. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotelus2883 Posted May 5, 2023 Author Share Posted May 5, 2023 4. Asaphida This specimen succumbed to my clumsiness and the right eye broke. The left one was already restored, and now both are in rough quality. Oh well. There was no specific information, so I had to guess a little. Still quite a nice bug, though. Asaphus lepidurus Asery/Aseri level? Vilpovitsy quarry?, St. Petersburg region, Russia Middle Ordovician? Purchased Right eye is restored with wood filler, and the left is with that Russian stuff that glows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotelus2883 Posted May 5, 2023 Author Share Posted May 5, 2023 5. Asaphida This one’s got a nice label, so I’ll post it as well. It would probably be easier to continue doing this, but I’ll type the information in as well. Homotelus bromidensis Pooleville Mbr, Bromide Fm Criner Hills, Carter County, Oklahoma Middle Ordovician Purchased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotelus2883 Posted May 8, 2023 Author Share Posted May 8, 2023 6. Asaphida This one looks kind of Illaenid-like, but that could just be me. Also, the stratigraphic unit was not stated, so I would appreciate any ideas on which formation it might be from. It’s also got some nice worm burrows on the back and a probably cheurid genal spine.

Isotelus2883 Posted May 16, 2023 Author Share Posted May 16, 2023 7. Asaphida Not a very good example, but it cost next to nothing. Isotelus gigas Rust Fm WRQ, Herkimer County, NY Upper Ordovician purchased 7a. Tridprinteriida A very rare species, fossilised in plastic which increases it’s rarity by a lot. Hollardops mesocristata tridimensioprinterii My friend’s 3D printer The land of plastic filament Uppermost Holocene Gifted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotelus2883 Posted May 17, 2023 Author Share Posted May 17, 2023 8. Asaphida Pac-man! Also looks a bit angry at an angle. Isotelus gigas Verulam Fm Lake Simcoe area, Ontario, Canada Upper Ordovician Purchased 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
