Misszhouia sp. Arthropod – Lower Cambrian Nevada OUT OF STOCK

Likely in the Naraoiidae family, this arthropod closely resembles the elongate Misszhouia.   early Cambrian period. Pre-dating Naraoia from the Burgess Shale by at least 10 million years, Misszhouia occurs with the oldest Archaeaspis trilobites found in North America in the Lower Cambrian (Atdabanian).  This is likely one of the oldest non-trilobite arthropod available from Laurentia.

The arthropod displays a large diameter gut line, two antennae as well as the classic complex system of gut diverticula patterns.
