Kolihapeltis Moroccan Trilobite Description: A member of the Order Corynexochida, Family Styginidae from the Middle Devonian deposits of Aatchana, Morocco, this is a member of the genus Kolihapeltis. The dramatic occipital spines which have been prepared freestanding,make this one easily distinguishable from other members of its family. I have included in-preparation photos so that you can gain an understanding of the process by which spiny specimens such as this are freed from the entombing matrix.
