30277 - Well Prepared "Flying" 3.07 Inch Morocconites malladoides Middle Devonian Trilobite Damesella for his pioneering work onImpressive specimen, prepared in an exceptional way. This trilobite has been prepared as free standing. This type of preparation requires meticulous work of tens of hours.
