Products description

 

Here is a pathologic Utah Trilobite of the species Elrathia kingii. The trilobite injury is in an advanced stage of regeneration. The actual injury must have happened a few molts ago. However, several puncture marks can still be seen. Such injuries certainly make one think of a predator like Anomalocaris with its spiked claws.

 
 

Location:

Millard Co., Utah, USA 
Size trilobite:about 27 mm long
Age:Middle Cambriun, Wheeler Fm. (about 518 Mill. Y.)

Product no.: 10970
