Notes

This is a rare early Harpetid. I bought the first example of this species I saw for sale that didn't suck.

This was prepped with the trilobite hovering above the rock.

This is commonly called Eoharpes cristatus but that is a Portugese trilobite and this is an undescribed trilobite and probably a different species. It may be placed in a different genus.
