Kolihapeltis chlupaci Trilobite

This striking Kolihapeltis chlupaci trilobite comes from the Kess-Kess Formation of Morocco and dates to the Middle Devonian Period, approximately 390 million years ago.

Kolihapeltis is an especially distinctive trilobite, known for its dramatic spines and elaborate body form. This specimen displays a broad, rounded cephalon with long, curved spines extending over the segmented thorax, creating an impressive three-dimensional appearance. The dark fossil contrasts beautifully against the warm, natural tones of the surrounding matrix, making the intricate anatomy easy to appreciate from multiple angles.

The trilobite measures approximately 1.5 inches long and is presented on a substantial 2.5 x 2.5 inch matrix. Its combination of pronounced spines, visible segmentation, and dimensional preparation makes this an eye-catching example of the extraordinary diversity of trilobites that inhabited Devonian seas.
