Description: Name: Arctinurus boltoni Age: Middle Silurian Formation: Rochester Shale Location: Middleport, New York Size: Trilobite is a full 7 inches long! This is a MONSTER example of an exotic US trilobite. It is a massive Arctinurus boltoni from the Silurian of New York. This is one of the most sought-after and displayable types of trilobites from the United States. We collected the quarry for a year, and only found a few complete specimens. This impressive trilobite is a full SEVEN INCHES LONG - WOW! The detail of the thick shell exoskeleton is very nice - the small pustules on the surface are easily seen. The pleural spines terminate in sharp points, and the broad, fan-shaped pygidium is wonderfully displayed. The GIANT fossil has very nice color and contrast and is well centered on the LARGE, semi-squared plate of dense shale. And, again, the bug is SEVEN INCHES LONG - only two or three complete Arctinurus ever found are seven inches!!! This is an extremely impressive and highly collectible specimen of the classic Lichid trilobite, Arctinurus boltoni. (Note: The plate is large and HEAVY!)
