This tiny trilobite fossil is perfect for any curious collector or lover of all things paleontology.

Trilobites meaning three lobes are a well-known fossil group of extinct marine arthropods that form the class Trilobita. The earliest trilobites known from the fossil records are dated to some 520 to 540 million years ago.

The largest Trilobites may have been 45 centimeters long and weighed 4.5 kilograms. They had many different lifestyles over their 300 million years on the planet – some moved across the seabed as predators, scavengers, or filter feeders whereas some swam, feeding on plankton and some even crawled on land!
