Offered from the Upper Ordovician, Katian; Tiouririne Formation of Jbel Arfoud, moroccan Anti Atlas, is a superb15cm complete Selenopeltis buchi buchi (Barrande 1846) on matrix with two fine and complete starfish, each approx.14cm across the arms.
The Selenopeltis specimen is in high relief and has been well prepared locally. It is in fine condition with both genal spines and all long thoracic pleural spines are preserved. The pygidial surface retains the coarse and irregular prosopon of tubercles that define this subspecies, and the twin pygidial border spines are intact.
Both starfish are subequal in size and are also in good relief, with the central disc undamaged and the arms are complete to their tips with their biserial arrangement of calcite plates sharply preserved.
Great price for a near perfect, complete and articulated example...................
Although I sell a very wide range of fossils from Pre- Cambrian to Pleistocene age, I specialize in trilobites from all over the globe and in particular, British species.
I collect regularly in the UK, with more than forty five years of fieldwork experience and probably the best working knowledge of British trilobite localities. I have a doctorate and a masters degree in trilobite taxonomy and British Palaeozoic stratigraphy and an Open University degree in Natural Sciences.
If you are an amateur collector, a more serious scientific collector, or an agent for an educational organization ( e.g College, University or Museum), I can supply materials to suit your needs! I also buy whole collections and trade materials too. Visits are welcome,by appointment only.
