Description: | Trilobites are so named because their bodies are divided into three parts. On this specimen, you can clearly see a head, a long body composed of a series of jointed plates, and a small tail or 'pygidium' composed of plates that are fused together. Trilobites like this lived on the seabed, scavenging for food. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | fossils natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
