Huge Beckwithia

Late Cambrian, USA

Huge 110mm (4.3") aglaspidid arthropod on 250mm (9.8") slab. Despite a resemblance to trilobites, these creatures are often considered to be close relatives of eurypterids and horseshoe crabs. Very few species are known and they are generally very rare even in the limited places they are found. This specimen is easily the best and biggest aglaspidid we have ever had. A true world class, museum-quality piece.
