Dicranurus Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 This trilobite is from Conasauga Shale, Floyd Co., Georgia, USA and it is Middle Cambrian. Is this Elrathia antiquata which is the dominant trilobite of Conasauga Shale? I don't know what other trilobites are in Conasauga Shale. Thanks again to everyone Jani "It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living." -Sir David Attenborough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamalama Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Nice find! Too bad it's so distorted.... but then Metamorphism will tend to do that to fossils. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
