(Just for looking, not for selling)
| Specimen: |
Greenops widderensis |
| Location: |
Arkona, Ontario |
| Period: |
Devonian |
This rare Dalmanitid was found in Arkona, Ontario.
Usually the shale is weathered and the trilobites lack shell. This
specimen came from a solid chunk of shale that protected the bug from
damage. Note the damage on the cephalon that was cause by tiny
fragments of marcusite that oxidized and corroded the adjacent shell. |
