Item: OK-1-odont H2

      Featured is a beautiful, prone, 3D Devonian trilobite, Odontochile syncramma, collected from the famous Bois d’Arc Formation in Clarita, Oklahoma.   This dalmanitid’s  faceted eyes are nicely preserved.  There is a brachiopod at the trilobite’s nose.

     The specimen is complete.  The genal spines and the cephalic processes are present. The pygidial spine is absent.   The thorax very slightly separated from the pygidium prior to fossilization. When the specimen was collected, the rock cross-sectioned the trilobite, which can be seen by the line running through the bug.   This is an excellent representative of an uncommon species.
 
     This specimen was obtained from an old collection.  I reprepped the specimen to clean out the grooves and smooth out the matrix.  This is a very fine piece!

The pictures illustrate the quality of this piece.
