The real difference, however, is that these were professionally prepared with air abrasion in our lab. In contrast, most Elrathia being sold have been cleaned with a wire brush - ouch.


Three Large Choice Elrathia kingii Trilobites in Rare Proximity Taxonomy: Trilobites Order Ptychopariida; Family Ptychopariidae Geological Time: Middle Cambrian Fossil Site: Wheeler Formation, Millard County, Utah Size: 39mm, 32mm, 28mm on 90mm x 105mm matrix Item: TFS082 Price: $95.00 Remarks: This is a excellent triple Elrathia plate. It's unusual to have three large, complete Elrathia so close together. They were found in a "bug puddle" in which the trilobites were incased in limestone, making them much more difficult to prepare. Those without pneumatic tools and a microblaster would either try to split these with a hammer, (which rarely turns out well), or throw them away. Most Elrathia are found in shale.
