    This is an incredible plate of FOUR Ceraurus pleurexanthemus from the famous Walcott-Rust Quarry (WRQ) near Trenton Falls, New York. This type is one of the original trilobites that Charles Walcott and James Hall made famous over a century ago! All four specimens on the plate are complete and outstretched, which is quite unusual. The textbook trilobites all have great detail preserved, showcasing the pustulated, thick shell exoskeletons beautifully. The inflated bugs are very well articulated and beautifully displayed on the large limestone plate -
    fully natural, no repair, restoration, or compositing!
    Anyone who knows anything about the history of US trilobites knows how amazing a multiple plate like this is. This is a fabulous multiple example of classic Ceraurus pleurexanthemus trilobites from an historic site in New York State.
