EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fossil specimen showcases the intricately preserved three-lobed dorsal exoskeleton of Ogygiocaris, an extinct trilobite species discovered in the Ordovician period of Wales. Measuring a modest 3.8 cm in length, this ancient arthropod is a captivating example of the Asaphida suborder within the Asaphidae family. The trilobite's name, Ogygiocaris, is derived from Ogygia, the mythical island in Greek mythology, and caris, meaning crab or shrimp. Trilobites, part of the larger Phylum Arthropoda, are among the most successful marine organisms in Earth's history, thriving from the Early Cambrian to the End Permian periods. Their distinctive three-lobed body structure, segmented exoskeleton, and multiple eyes set them apart from other marine invertebrates. The fossilized Ogygiocaris specimen displayed here is a testament to the rich history of marine life that once inhabited our planet. Its well-preserved details reveal the complex patterns and structures that characterized this ancient arthropod, providing valuable insights into the evolution of life on Earth. This studio shot captures the beauty and intrigue of Ogygiocaris, inviting us to explore the fascinating world of trilobites and the history they represent. With its black background, the specimen stands out in stark contrast, allowing its unique features to be fully appreciated.
