Notes
This is a small trilobite (13 mm long) but has a lot of features in a small amount of space. There are genal spines, an occipital spine, two axial spines, short stubby spines on the glabella, and short spines around the rim of the head. There seems to be some variation among individuals in the number and positions of the spikes on the glabella.
