Ptyocephalus yersini Trilobite
Geological Time: Lower Ordovician
Fossil Site: Fillmore Formation, Millard County, Utah
Size: 31 mm on 60 mm x 80 mm matrix
Item: TFS047
Price: Sold
Remarks:
Utah (as well as other Western States) is well known for its Cambrian fauna and
trilobites in particular. Trilobites from the Ordovician also occur but in far
fewer exposures. In Utah, the Fillmore, Garden City, Pogonip, Swan Peak, and
Wah Wah Formations yield Ordovician trilobites. No trilobites from Utah are known
that are younger than the middle Ordovician. This trilobites comes from my own
lease in the lower, middle Ordovician Fillmore formation. These trilobites are
not commonly offered. This one is usually found enrolled, making this a most
unusual and thus highly-desirable specimen.
