holdinghistory Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Hello all, got this really interesting trilobite in from one of my sources that was unattributed. Any ideas? Also, is there a good source of information on how to attribute Moroccan trilobites? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranha Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 The trilobite is Harpes perradiatus. LINK Unfortunately, this specimen is heavily reconstructed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holdinghistory Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 Thank you! I figured it was reconstructed a bit too, and poorly prepped. But a bit more unusual than a Phacops or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeseF Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 For the price it's a interesting piece to hold on to; the seller you purchased it from is liquidating a large collection, but they're primarily an antiques dealer. If you're interested in more Moroccan trilobites I am happy to PM you information on finding authentic ones . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holdinghistory Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 I had guessed so. I have bought a number of his fossils, lots of nice stuff. Any information would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
