Trilobites
Trilobites. Computer artwork of trilobites in the sea during the Devonian period. This lasted from around 408 to 360 million years ago. Trilobites were marine arthropods that were abundant between 500 and 200 million years ago. They had a pair of antennae and primitive compound eyes. They were bottom-dwellers, and scavenged for food on the seabed. At upper centre, three ammonites are seen, primitive cephalopod molluscs that were relatives of the modern-day nautilus. These animals were generated for use in the Devonian Ocean Simulator, an interactive virtual reality simulation of marine wildlife at this time

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing world of trilobites during the Devonian period, which spanned from approximately 408 to 360 million years ago. Created using computer artwork, it transports us back in time to an era when these marine arthropods thrived abundantly for millions of years. Trilobites possessed a unique set of characteristics including a pair of antennae and primitive compound eyes, enabling them to navigate their underwater habitat with ease. In this image, we are treated to a glimpse of trilobites as they scavenge for food on the seabed. Their intricate details and vibrant colors come alive through this artistic representation. At the upper center, three ammonites gracefully accompany our trilobite friends. These ancient cephalopod molluscs were distant relatives of today's nautilus and add another layer of intrigue to this prehistoric scene. It is worth noting that this stunning visual was originally crafted for use in the Devonian Ocean Simulator - an interactive virtual reality experience that allows users to immerse themselves in the diverse marine wildlife from this fascinating epoch. As we marvel at these fossilized creatures frozen in time, let us appreciate both their beauty and significance within paleontological research.
