Trilobit - Fossiler Panzer - Reedops maurulus
Amazing trilobite on matrix.
The quality of this specimen is stunning, not so often seen on the market.
Compound Eyes are superb heads full of granulations.
Compound eyes in living arthropods such as insects are very sensitive to motion, and it is likely that they were similarly important in predator detection in trilobites.
Trilobite eyes, in contrast, had rigid, crystalline lenses, and therefore no accommodation.
In this specimen, almost all the lenses are preserved. Imagine that each lens bears an individual cornea
lenses separated from each other.
These eyes offered a 360-degree vision to the trilobite. To think that this happened 380 million years ago seems impossible.
Compound eyes are a marvel of nature.
The photos speak for themself.
