Extinct Extinction Fossil Fossilisation Fossilised Ordovician Palaeozoic St Petersburg Trilobite
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Paraceraurus exsul, a trilobite species that existed during the Ordovician period. Preserved in stunning detail, this fossil is a testament to the ancient world and its remarkable inhabitants. The photograph was taken at the Dubovici Formation in Duboviki, located along the scenic Volchov River in St Petersburg, Russia. The Pete Lawrance collection has curated this exceptional specimen, which provides valuable insights into Earth's history. Trilobites like Paraceraurus exsul roamed our planet over 400 million years ago before facing extinction. Fossilisation has allowed us to study these magnificent creatures and unravel their secrets from within palaeozoic rocks. The Llanvirn series of the Ordovician period marks an important time for life on Earth when diverse marine ecosystems flourished. This particular trilobite species thrived during this era and left behind an enduring legacy captured by Sinclair Stammers' lens. As we marvel at this image, let us appreciate both the beauty of nature's artistry and scientists' dedication to preserving our past. This print serves as a reminder of how fossils can transport us back in time and deepen our understanding of prehistoric life on our ever-evolving planet.
