Finding a prime example of Homotelus bromidensis is quite difficult. For whatever reason, this trilobite is usually found in groups and disarticulated. Some of these death plates (such as the one shown here) make attractive display specimens. Homotelus is Ordovician in age and found in the Criner Hills of Carter County, Oklahoma. The specimen plate shown here is priced at SOLD and is above average quality.

Single flat Homotelus bromidensis are very difficult to find and nearly always slightly disarticulated. This specimen is well above average in preservation and appearance. It measures 5 cm in length on a matrix plate of ~4.5 by 6.5 cm. For a fine quality flat Homotelus, the price of SOLD is quite reasonable.

Here is a fine example of Asaphus roniceps, from the Middle Ordovician, Vilpovitsy, St. Petersburg region, Russia. The trilobite measures ~5.5 cm in length and 3.5 cm in width. The plate is ~8.5 by 13 cm. This is but one of several Asaphus species. Price: SOLD.

Here is a good quality Isotelus fritzae from the Colburn Formation, Colburn, Ontario, Canada. It is Silurian in age and measures ~7 cm in length. SOLD
