5" Lower Cambrian Trilobite (Longianda) - Issafen, Morocco

This is an excellent 5" long specimen of Longianda termieri with only about 1% restoration and free standing axial spines.

Comes with a display stand.

In the past few years, deposits near Issafen, Morocco have begun yielding a new assemblage of Early Cambrian trilobites. This fauna is very diverse and consists mainly of ellipsocephalids, chengkouiids, gigantopygids, holmiids, neltneriids, saukiandids, and the latest fallotaspids. The shale is a greenish to slightly yellow color when freshly split, but weathers to a light grey.
