Furca bohemica
Arthropod
Upper Ordovician (Sandbian)
Letna Formation
Beroun, Vesela, Czech Republic

Extremely rare 22mm marrellamorph arthropod on 50mm matrix. This is the original species described years before the finds in Morocco. Only one we have ever had.

Arthropod.

Furca is a genus of marrellamorph arthropod known from the Ordovician of Europe (and apparently north Africa). It’s known for its distinctive head shield but not from any other body parts. Somebody is going to like the look of the headshield and adapt it for a logo or art piece.

Highly unusual specimen for collectors of unusual invertebrates.
