a reedops sp. so called "came from china." identified by experts (and me) as a real, original location remains unknown. 95% morocco, 4% somewhere else, 1% in china.

I have a trilobite under the name Phacops that looks pretty much exactly the same, same quality, probably same species and looks like the same matirx.
My fossil is from Erfoud, Morocco. At least, that's what the label said
