I tend to think of trilobites having ~20 thoracic segments or less but I suppose there are some exceptions. Nautiloid sutures can be a little wavy but I'll admit the geometry doesn't seem quite right which was why I invoked deformation/weathering. Not feeling very confident about that though.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10293693723899837239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7578322515370564452.post-11133160557571904692009-01-25T19:32:00.000-07:002009-01-25T19:32:00.000-07:00How old is it, first of all?

My guess is that the most clear 'end' of it is the tail of a large trilobite, and that the head is missing. The s-shaped bits could be leg parts or gills?Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07533475322438942182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7578322515370564452.post-43705740606856985452009-01-24T21:35:00.000-07:002009-01-24T21:35:00.000-07:00I seriously do not know.
