Here is a plate with TWO extremely rare trilobite-eating organisms from the class, Merostomata and order, Aglaspida. This animal, Chlupacaris dubia, n. gen., n. sp., is one of the most unusual organisms to be found in these Ordovician layers. This excellent double specimen has very good detail preserved. The NATURAL red-orange color is quite beutiful and very easily seen. And this is a split pair - four arthropod fossils are included! This is a collectible double example of this little-known and enigmatic arthropod from the Ordovician.
