Name: Cryptolithus bellulusAge: Upper OrdovicianFormation: Martinsburg FormationLocation: Swatara Gap, Lebanon Co., PennsylvaniaSize: Trilobite is 0.4 inches long
This is a very cool Trinucleid fossil. It is a colorful Cryptolithus bellulus trilobite from the classic site at Swatara Gap, Pennsylvania. This distinct specimen was collected by Steve Hess in 1984. This type of trilobite is known for the unusual pitted fringe that encircles the entire front of the trilobite - this specimen has this feature wonderfully displayed. The rest of the trilobite also has very nice detail preserved - and the occipital spine is even intact! The bug\'s rust-orange coloration is fully natural and quite striking. This is a classic example of a complete Cryptolithus trilobite from this long-closed site.
