Trilobite or Proteus Granulosus are similar to the horseshoe
crab, Trilobites – meaning 3 lobes – lived from 550 to 200 million years ago in
the Cambrian, Paleozonic, and Devonian seas.
There are hundreds of species of
Trilobites, but they are most closely related to the chelicerates, which include
the horseshoe crabs and spiders.
They are now all extinct, but their fossil
remains are found in many places in the U.S and worldwide. Some, in the Canadian
Rockies, have been found as large as 2 ½ feet in length.
