Syspacheilus sp.

Weeks Formation

Millard County, UT
Cambrian

 

Here is a very rare and poorly understood trilobite from the upper layers of the Weeks Formation. This new species of trilobite, Syspacheilus sp., is so rare that even parts of this trilobite are not commonly found. The size of this trilobite is also something that is surprising; it measures 2” long.
