Here is a classic Morocco trilobite of the genus Cyphaspis from Jbel Oufaten. This trilobite comes from an old collection and may have been prepared in Germany.

But a restoration can also be seen along the adhesion line as well as the 3rd pleural segments right tip. It is nevertheless a decorative Morocco trilobite on a handsome matrix. | |||
