Trilobites
Trilobites are amongst the oldest arthropods. They were abundant during the Paleozoic era, but died out at the end of it. Trilobites roamed the ocean floor for 270 million years (520-250 million years ago); making Trilobites one of the most successful species! They are easy identified with their three part bodies. Typically very ornate and highly collectable fossils. My of my favorites! Authenticity guaranteed. Great gifts!
