Fossil Friday!

Fossil Friday

Like my last fossil, a common everyday trilobite, this specimen came from the Hunsrueck slate in Germany. You can see the fool’s-gold color typical of pyritization a bit better here. But what is it? I’ve told you the locality (and therefore the age), so I’m not going to feel bad that there is no sense of scale here. You can figure it out; I know you can.Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University
