Batman Trilobite

Harpes (Scotoharpes) Trilobite

Middle Devion period

It has a very dramatic "head shield" which is often interpreted as a mechanism to help it stay on top of a soft ocean floor. This preglabellar ring (head shield) is covered in many sensory pits which may have held hairlike features when the trilobite was alive.

Approx size of fossil - 4.5x3.5x2.5 in. , with box - 8.5x5.5x3.5 in.
