palaeopix Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Some very sad news today. It's with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of Riccardo Levi-Setti (Physicist and Trilobite specialist) who passed away this morning at the age of 92. He will be missed. RIP Riccardo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
