Asaphellus tataensis
Early Ordovician Period (approx. 480 million years ago)
Fezouata Formation, Drâa-Tafilalet Region, Morocco
28 x 24½ x 1½ inches (71.1 x 62.2 x 3.8 cm). 67 pounds (30.4 kg).
An assemblage of fossil trilobites belonging to a single species, Asaphellus tataensis, preserving both complete and incomplete shells (cephalon, thorax, and pygidium) nicely prepared in high relief on a matrix slab. Mostly articulated examples with eyes and spines (genal) are intact, many are preserved overlapping and some maintain their mouth plates (hypostome). Unidentified debris is discernible.
