| Rare undescribed Utah trilobite
Taxonomy: Exceedingly rare and undescribed Utah trilobite
Geological Time:
Size: 47 mm x 23 mm on 83 mm x 70 mm matrix
Fossil Site: House Range, Weeks Formation, Millard County, Utah
Item: R8W032
Price: $800.00
Remarks: This undescribed trilobite is so far that it has mainly been known from
parts. It is largely complete, missing a few pleural spines that have been bitten
off. All a fine specimen of a species that few collectors possess. The trilobite
was cleaned with air abrasion and has had no restoration, a descision left to
its final owner. We will not venture a guess as to its taxonomy, but wish note
that it seems to have a morphology remenisant of Triarthrus, a trilobite of Order
Ptychopariida primarily known from Canada and New York.
