Ancient Seas, Morocco, Alnif, Hamar Ladad Formation, Devonian Period, ca. 416 to 359.2 million years ago; North America, Midwestern United States, Ohio, Silica formation, Mid Devonian Period, ca. 387.7 million years ago. A fine collection of four trilobite fossils and brachiopods, each in a stone matrix. The first is a species of Philipsmithia hyfinkeli, with the genal spines protruding from the sides of the head. The second fossil is a Thysanopeltis speciosa, with distinctive, lengthy tail spines. The next is Phacops speculator and has been excavated to show off almost all sides of the trilobite. Last is a shale matrix that exhibits both a Phacops rana type of trilobite and fossilized brachiopods.
