My final #InverteFest for this round is the fossil trilobites (Eldredgeops rana) and horn coral that @thomashegna.bsky.social gave me. They are Devonian (~380 million years ago) from upstate NY 🧪 Look at the schizochroal eye facets (unique to phacopid trilobites)! www.trilobites.info/eyes.htm

Happy #WorldHorseshoeCrabDay!
 These spinning #horseshoecrab (Limulus polyphemus) embryos are developing inside their eggs, just weeks away from hatching. Despite their name, horseshoe crabs are closer relatives of spiders and scorpions than crustaceans.
