AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A box with 2 trilobites:

Acastoides zguilmensis
Anti-Atlas, Morocco
Middle Devonian

The trilobites began to roll up. We therefore not only see the fossil remains of these extinct sea creatures, but also their last behavior: curling up!
Perhaps they anticipated danger and wanted to curl up to protect their soft parts on the underside of their armor, such as the legs.

box dimensions: 7.5 x 5.2 x 3.2 cm.

frame dimensions: 12 x 17 cm

The fossil will be sent by registered mail.

Shipping costs are at the buyer's expense
