Trilobites were one of the most successful arthropod groups in Earth’s history, thriving for over 270 million years. Parabolinella triarthra was a small, early trilobite species known for its streamlined body, well-adapted for movement across the Ordovician seafloor. The Tremadocian trilobites from Shropshire, UK, are an important part of early marine fossil records and are rarely available to collectors.
