Presented is a very interesting plate from the Tazemmourt Section, with one dorsal exoskeleton of P. brevilimbatus.
Some other dispersed sclerites are also present.
Although the specimen is incomplete, it is quite an interesting collector item for a fair price.
* Perrector cranidium lacks librigenae; Nevertheless, it shows the typical characteristics of Perrector brevilimbatus (the frontal lobe position in relation to palpebral lobes, quite distinctive in adult specimens);
* At the bottom left corner of the main exoskeleton, one left librigena is displayed in the slab; the size and shape are according to the lacking left librigena; it is probable that the displaced tergite stayed near the fossil; This genal shows conspicuous parallel terrace ridges;
* Incomplete but interesting thorax:
a) Segments 1 to 5 are complete in the three lobes, well-preserved and in original positions;
b) Segment 6 is slightly distorted and it was pushed backwards;
c) Segment 7 just presents its axial lobe and it is displaced;
d) Segments 8 to 10 are completely missing;
e) Segments 11 to 14 are very well-preserved, actually in the original position (!), despite the discontinuity with the anterior part of the thorax, and connected with the pygidium;
* Both macropleurae, growing from the 11th thoraxic segment are complete and very well-preserved (quite difficult !)
* Very well-preserved pygidium and pygidial plate, even displaying some terrace ridges, a difficult tergite to find in place and complete conditions;
* Also note the very well-preserved glabella, with all lobes easily identifiable
;
* Another left (and yellow !) librigenea is noticeable in the "back" of the slab;
The yellow colour is due to the replacement of the original cuticular substances with argillaceous, phosphatic and ferritic minerals.
Unique opportunity, fair price. Good collector item.

Fossils - namely premium items - are, nowadays, a way of investment as their value will increase. They are increasingly also being used as decor, and luxury items, taking advantage of the mysterious beauty and framing that they can provide in appropriate spaces.
