Here is a attractive specimen of the genus Ceratages from the middle Devonian of Zerg (also called Zireg) from the most southern Maider Basin. If we follw international Maps is the locality about 11 km in the south of the Algerian Moroccan border. The Moroccans see that quite a bit different, maybe the Maps are not precise or outdated. This spiny trilobite are does have no Restorations or reconstructions. The right librigena that was primary missing is sculptured from the original native stone. The Trilobite shows a dynamical posing that follows slightly a wave profile. | |||
