Trilobite 2 Inch Harpes Starship Shaped Bug. Harpes is one of the most interesting shaped trilobites that is found in the 385 million year old fossil beds of Erfoud, Morocco. Most trilobites have a very similar shape that takes an expert to tell them apart. Harpes is very distinctive with its wide cephalon along with long spines sweeping back to its tail, this trilobite looks something like a starship. This 2 inch excellent trilobite is complete with even a myriad of small bumps covering all of its surface which are called postules. The black trilobite is nicely centered on a thick 4 1/2 X 2 x 2 inch limestone matrix. Estimated Value $250 - 500
