Trilobite (Asaphus Kowalewskii) Plush

Trilobites, fascinating creatures that predated the existence of dinosaurs, inhabited Earth's primordial seas over 500 million years ago. These arthropods achieved remarkable success, thriving for approximately 300 million years. They hold the distinction of being the most diverse group of extinct animals documented in the fossil record, with more than 20,000 identified species. In modern times, trilobites continue to captivate the interest of fossil enthusiasts and collectors alike. Their exquisite and easily recognizable fossils are scattered throughout rocks worldwide. 

Asaphus kowalewskii is one of the 35 species of trilobites of the genus Asaphus (this particular species is sometimes placed in its own genus, Neoasaphus). Fossils of this species are popular among collectors because of their prominent stalked eyes (termed "peduncles"), many an inch or more in length.

This wonderful plush is soft and cuddly.
