Trilobita: Life History and Ecology
Most trilobites lived in fairly shallow water and were benthic; they walked on the bottom, and probably fed on detritus. A few, like the agnostids, may have been pelagic, floating in the water column. Cambrian and Ordovician trilobites generally lived in shallow water. After the Ordovician, when many trilobite groups declined or went extinct, the survivors tended to be restricted to deeper water.
Food particles were stirred up by the legs and pass ...

Last Updated: May 19, 2006
Please be patient as there are many images to view
The term Trilobite refers to an extinct class of arthropods. Tri-lobe0ite alludes to the three-part, longitudinal division of their exoskeleton. These animals first appeared at the beginning of the Cambrian Period around 570 million years ago. They flourished throughout the early Paleozoic Era and then decreased in diversity until their extinction in the late Permian Period arou ...

EMUELLA FROM SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Hi!, I'm Dave, a fossil collector in Australia.
My main interests are Trilobites from the Lower Cambrian deposits of South Australia : Redlichia takooensis, Estaingia bilobata /Xystridura, ( Estaingia bilobata were previously classified as Hsuaspis bilobata ) Kootenia sp. and Emuellidae . The latter is the one I've mainly studied over the past few years.
They were first described by Dr. B Daily, of the Geology Department, University of Adelaide in ...
