Frightmares

Recommended Posts

So, I will admit, I am severely uneducated when it comes to trilobites, but I’d love to learn more about them — the different species, what’s rare, what’s common, formations they’re found in, etc. I don’t have any in my collection yet, and I’d like to change that. Any recommendations where I could start my learning? Books, articles, papers, anything is appreciated.

Here is a very good website on trilobites with a classification by family. In French but also in Latin :)

Here is an easy to navigate and incredibly useful guide, https://trilobites.info/ created by Sam Gon III.

 

A very good overview in my opinion despite being 15-20 years old.

 

Tim beat me to it, shows it must be good when its the first thing that comes to mind to at least two people.
