Description: This an extremely well-prepped out Hollardops mesocristatus from the Devonian in Morocco. The matrix underlying the pygidial and genal spines has been removed. The fossil looks like it is floating.The fossil measures 2.45 inches long and 1.76 inches wide (genal spine to genal spine). The entire specimen, matrix and trilobite, measures 3.55 inches long, 3.0 inches wide and 2.1 inches high. Both eyes have incredibly well-preserved schizochroal lenses. There is a repair running through the tip of the right genal spine, through the thorax and out through the left genal spine In the trilobite -collecting world this is not a detriment. Trilobites are found by smashing open rocks and the specimens often get broken as a result. It is rare to find an entire, unbroken trilobite. And if one is found, they usually are sold for a premium amount. Many sellers do not disclose that their fossils have been repaired as the repair is often very well done, and virtually undetectable. I believe in full disclosure.When mailing out this item, the fossil will be placed in a plastic container, which is securely fastened down with a screw. The container will be wrapped in bubble wrap and placed in a crushproof box. All of my fossils are authentic and have been legally obtained.
