This exceptional, unique plate displays two associated Koneprusia dahmani trilobites in their post-mortem position. One is totally enrolled (a very rare finding !) and not aligned with the other one, in straigh position.
The specimens' spines are freestanding and beautifully presented on their natural matrix from Jbel Oufaten, showcasing the characteristic tones of the Devonian Anti-Atlas Mountains quarries.
All spines were meticulously prepared by sandblasting for dozens of hours.
Taxonomy
- Species: Koneprusia dahmani
- Family: Odontopleuridae
- Order: Lichida
- Class: Trilobita
Authenticity & Preparation: No restoration, except minimal crack filling on the exoskeleton and matrix — a standard and almost undetectable practice for authentic Moroccan specimens. 100% natural, with no painting, shadowing or composite additions. The specimen was carefully reassembled from naturally fractured pieces during preparation, as is typical for Devonian trilobites; no reconstruction or remounting was performed.
All spines are freestanding and presented on the original natural matrix.
Perfect for serious collectors and museums seeking a scientifically significant, display-ready Devonian trilobite assemblage with exceptional spine preservation and paleoecological value.
********
All our trilobites were repaired after being broken at the settlement (they were glued in the lab). The vast majority don't suffer any reconstruction (=restoration) or composition. That's something we are proud to maintain as a philosophy in our work. If so, we'll tell you for sure right here.
Legally sourced and shipped from Portugal with registered tracking.
Do not hesitate to ask any questions. We will be more than happy to provide any additional details.
