This is a very prolific plate of trilobites from the Cambrian of Utah. There are MANY examples of Elrathia kingi, in various growth stages, on the slab. The detailed trilobites are nicely showcased - many of the specimens have the free cheeks intact. The black bugs are very sharp in appearance and contrast beautifully with the gray matrix. The fossils are well displayed on the large, unbroken plate of shale. And, best of all, this wonderful specimen has not been composited - all of these trilobites are original to the plate. This is a very nice multiple plate of trilobites from the Wheeler Formation.
