Injuries and molting interference in a trilobite from the Cambrian (Furongian) of South China [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 An injured Shergoldia laevigata Zhu, Hughes & Peng, 2007 (Trilobita, Asaphida) was collected from the Furongian of Guangxi, South China. The injuries occurred in the left thoracic pleurae possessing two marked V-shaped gaps.

Trilobite expansion into estuarine environments during the Ordovician radiation [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 Trilobites have traditionally been considered fully marine. Through the integration of ichnological, palaeobiological and sedimentological datasets within a sequence-stratigraphic and stratiÂgraphic palaeobiology framework, we challenge this assumption.

First record of the Ordovician fauna in Mila-Kuh, eastern Alborz, northern Iran [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2015 Restudy of the Cambrian–Ordovician boundary beds, traditionally assigned to the Mila Formation Member 5 in Mila-Kuh, northern Iran, for the first time provides convincing evidence of the Early Ordovician (Tremadocian) age of the uppermost part of the ...

The oldest known digestive system consisting of both paired digestive glands and a crop from exceptionally preserved trilobites of the Guanshan Biota (Early Cambrian, China). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The early Cambrian Guanshan biota of eastern Yunnan, China, contains exceptionally preserved animals and algae. Most diverse and abundant are the arthropods, of which there are at least 11 species of trilobites represented by numerous specimens.

Polyatomic trilobite Rydberg molecules in a dense random gas [PDF]
, 2004 Trilobites are exotic giant dimers with enormous dipole moments. They consist of a Rydberg atom and a distant ground-state atom bound together by short-range electron-neutral attraction. We show that highly polar, polyatomic trilobite states unexpectedly

Discovery of trilobite trace fossils from the Early to Middle Cambrian, Tabas Block, Central Iran [PDF]
Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2017 Early to Middle Cambrian successions exposed at the Shirgesht area, Tabas Block of central Iran has yielded a high diversity and abundant ichnofossils with arthropod trackways. These trace fossils contain diverse ethological patterns, including furrowing
