Welcome. Hope this site helps you as it has me. I'm into "rocks"/geology with a particular interest in paleontology/trilobites. Earth's history is endlessly fascinating.

Draa valley of Morocco.
 
A beautiful Dikelokephalina! I've only just recently started studying trilobites and am not well versed, but I do think that is a very well-preserved fossil. No matter how many times I see it, I will always be amazed by how perfectly earth can preserve creatures from millions of years ago. Quite an amazing quality of our world, I must say.

I hope you have a successful recovery from your surgery!

That is a huge one. During the Cambrian and Ordovician, Morocco was near the South Pole and like today, crustaceans in cold waters grew large.
