RushCountyRocks Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) I'm on a school sponsored computer so the best sites are blocked, keep that in mind because this is a bit of a dumb question and the reason I pose it, is because I have found two separate lists and I don't know which is correct. So my question is, what are the classes of the trilobites? Edited May 4, 2017 by RushCountyRocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Which lists are you referring to? Might help if you could post them here. Otherwise, there are no dumb questions - we all start somewhere! I'm not sure if you will be able to access this site via the constraints of your school's computer, but this site does have some good information that might answer your question: http://trilobites.info/ 2 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushCountyRocks Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 Trilobites.info is one I requested to be unblocked, because I figured it has to be correct. Here were the two lists I took, please don't condemn me for using Wikipedia, I figured itd be okay for something this small. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trilobite http://www.trilobites.info/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 No harm in making use of Wikipedia for more general inquiries The trilobites.info site largely relies on Fortey's 1997 classification of the orders with some modifications. There was a split in 2001/2 of the ptychopariida and harpetiida, with the inclusion as well of the odontopleurida. Although brand new orders do not occur that regularly in the literature, it is more common that new genera are added from time to time. I would think, depending on what use you are making of this information, this source is reasonably accurate. If you really wanted to wander into the weeds and be treated with some very specific literature, TFF member piranha occasionally uploads open access trilobite papers here: 2 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushCountyRocks Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 Thank you so much for the helpful info! This is something just for my own use, so the formality doesn't have to be up top. So is this the pretty much up to date orders? Agnostida, Redlichiida, Corynexochida, Lichida, Phacopida, Proetida, Asaphida, Harpetida and Ptychopariida.

Kane Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 My pleasure! I think the only one you might be missing here is Ondontopleurida, which was first identified in the original Trilobita treatise (1959), and shares some common similarities with the Lichida. 1 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I would also recommend for your reading pleasure these two books if they are available at your school or local public library: Trilobites, by Riccardo Levi-Setti Trilobites, by H.B.Whittington. The Levi-Setti book may be more accessible a read, and has plenty of good diagrams and photo plates. 2 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDAWG Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Wikipedia is much better than it used to be. Why is your access to obviously educational web sites blocked so severely? If you can't access Sam Gon's great trilobite site I can't imagine what you do have access to. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RushCountyRocks Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 Thanks opabinia I have been working on getting past the firewall. Also, fossildawg, I go to a catholic private high school so words like "rock" are blocked by their automatic marker because it could me rock drugs or something, its pitiful, CatholicAnswers.com was blocked as well so its a very flawed system and I find myself emailing the moderator a large amount.

Kane Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I can understand how network security may adopt a precautionary principle, but the extent of blockage at your school seems a tad extreme! Hopefully you have access to the internet at home, the public library, or some other public places like cafes and some fast food restaurants. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesuslover340 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Don't know much on trilobites but just wanted to say that the only "dumb" question there is is the one that isn't asked Questions lead to learning, and we all start being spoon-fed! 2 "Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another."-Romans 14:19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
