PennyT. Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Hello fellow Trilo fans, this was found in the Maquoketa of NW Illinois. Is it an Isotelus pygidium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimB88 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Yep, and part of the thorax too! Nice Find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bev Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I did an advanced google image search on Isotelus Pygidium HERE and would also say yes. Thorax too is very nice! Great Job, Penny! The more I learn, I realize the less I know.

PennyT. Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 Thanks, Jim, Bev & Herb. I was having a dry spell almost as long as the late summer drought. After we finally got a good drencher, I went out to see what the rain might have uncovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
