Myopsolenites boutiouiti is one of the most rare and bizarre trilobites from the famous locality of Tarhoucht in the Jebel Ougnate massive. This trilobite species I also sometimes labelled as Resserops sp., what is defiantly not correct. This nice example offers a good preservation with nice details. All 13 thorax segments are visible, also the continuous line of median tubercles at the rachis. Both librigenas are attached. Maybe the last end of the left genial spine is slightly repaired or restaurated , there is no way to find out without do damage the piece. | |||
