Include certificate Scientific Name: Zlichovaspis rugosa Phacops (Morocops) ovatus Location: Alnif Region, Morocco Stage: Devonian Size: Approximately 9–10 cm (complete matrix) Fossil description: Exceptional set formed by two trilobites in flight: Zlichovaspis rugosa, with fine spines and highly aesthetic morphology, accompanied by a Phacops (Morocops) ovatus perfectly defined in the same matrix. Both pieces have been cleaned by hand using sandblasting, a process that requires a great deal of manual labor to reveal each anatomical detail without compromising the fossil's integrity. The matrix presents a balanced and very attractive composition, with clear readability of both specimens, which makes this piece a museum-level fossil, extremely difficult to find with this quality and disposition. Restoration: Natural piece; manual preparation with sandblasting. REF: 1372
