Introduction to the Trilobita Gone, but not forgotten. . . Click on this image to view an enlarged version! Among famous groups of extinct organisms, trilobites probably rank second only to the dinosaurs in fame. Their fossils are instantly recognizable and often strikingly beautiful. In fact, prehistoric people liked them as much as we do. At Arcy-sur-Cure in France, a 15,000-year- old human settlement, one of the artifacts found by archeologists was a trilobite that had been drilled to be worn as an amulet. Although the last few trilobites went extinct about 245 million years ago, they are one of the best-known and most-studied groups of fossil arthropods Find out more about trilobites by searching for them in our Invertebrate Type Catalog (as you'll find, we have a few!)....

Trilobita and Trilobite Allies: Systematics As traditionally defined, the true Trilobita are divided into two main groups, the Agnostida and the Polymerida . Agnostids have sometimes been considered non-trilobites even crustaceans, by some but recent analyses (e.g. Fortey and Theron 1994) support the inclusion of the Agnostida in the Trilobita. A third group, the Nektaspida, was not identified until the 1980s; its members include soft-bodied arthropods from the Burgess Shale such as Naraoia . Some, such as Gould (1991), have classified the Nektaspida as true trilobites; others (e.g. Simonetta and Delle Cave, 1991) have disagreed. On this cladogram, which is based on the work of Fortey and Theron (1994) and Wills et al. (1993), the Nektaspida are the sister taxon to the polymerid and agnostid trilobites; whether the Nektaspida should be considered "true" trilobites or not is largely a matter of definition. Many other Cambrian arthropods, especially those from the world-famous Burgess Shale, were once considered probable trilobite relatives, or "trilobitomorphs." While many of these problematic arthropods are no longer thought to be related to the true trilobites, recent studies have shown that a number of them are closer to the trilobites than to any other arthropods. The term "Trilobitomorpha" is used here in this more restricted sense. Exactly how these arthropods are related to the trilobites is not yet perfectly clear, but the non-trilobite "trilobitomorphs" probably compose several clades. One of the clades that probably fits in here is called the Emeraldellida. Yet another group of arthropods, the aglaspids, have traditionally been grouped with the

They help in dating other fossils found in the same sedimentary layer. For example, if you find a fossil from an unknown era near a fossil from a known time, you can assume that the two species were from about the same time. Examples of index fossils include: Ammonites were common during the Mesozoic Era (245 to 65 mya), They were not found after the Cretaceous period, as they went extinct during the K-T extinction (65 mya). Brachiopods (mollusk-like marine animals) appeared during the Cambrian (540 to 500 mya); some examples still survive.

Paleozoic.org is sponsored by Notkin.net : A graphics house specializing in art direction and web design for clients in natural history and earth sciences. Paleozoic.org's Esoteric Guide to the WWW of Paleontology There are hundreds, perhaps thousands, of paleontology sites on the web: commercial, educational, reference resources, online publications, virtual museums and more. A fossil enthusiast could spend a year visiting all of them. Reference and Educational Resources Fossil Collections of the World Detailed information about the geologic time scale, with characteristics of each era; classic fossil sites; important paleontologists in history, and much more. An outstanding and extensive resource. Fossils, Rocks, and Time Presented by the U.S. Geological Survey, this is a complete online edition of the book by Lucy E. Edwards and John Pojeta Jr. It is a superior educational site for younger readers, and helps to put geologic time in perspective. Their illustrated geologic time scale is beautiful (look closely). Other features: explanation and origin of geologic terms; discussions about evolution and the Law of Fossil Succession; diagrams, charts, and photographs; numeric versus relative time scale, and much more. Many adults will find this excellent site useful too. Highly recommended.

Atapuerca: A Human Heritage Site - In a small hill east of Burgos, Spain, evidence of the presence and lifeways of prehistoric humanity is preserved, spanning the time from one million years ago to the present. Throughout the centuries, many different human groups have lived and left their marks on the Sierra de Atapuerca, which at different times in its history has been a refuge, hunting ground, sanctuary, battleground, landmark, limestone quarry and, finally, archaeological site. Atapuerca (American Museum of Natural History Exhibition) - The gently rolling hills known as the Sierra de Atapuerca in northern Spain hide a complex system of large limestone caverns. Openings into the caves dot the hillsides, and for nearly one million years, these cave entrances have provided shelter for humans as well as animals. Over the millennia, the inhabitants of Atapuerca left behind an extraordinary fossil record that scientists are just beginning to unearth.
