Article: FN 6195 Name: Ogyginus corndensis (MURCHISON 1839) Age: Mittelordovizium, Llanvirndium, approx. 465 Mio. Years Discovery Site: Llandrindod Wells, Powys, Wales, England Fossil Measurement: 6,1 cm (2.4 inch) Matrix Measurement: 8,0 x 10,0 x 3,5 cm (3.94 x 1.38 inch) Remarks: Beautiful and typical
trilobite Ogyginus from the
Middle Ordovician of Wales,
England.
The special thing about the
piece is that although this
trilobite looks like a
negative at first glance, it
is actually an original. This
trilobite is connected to the
matrix in such a way that the
trilobite shell is in the
hanging plate (upper layer).
This means you can view the
trilobite from “below”, so to
speak. Such preservations are
rather rare!
Very beautiful and rare
