Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Trilobites were among the most successful and versatile organisms ever to exist. Among the earliest forms of complex animal life, these hard-shelled marine invertebrates inhabited the primal seas of the Paleozoic era. Their march through evolutionary time began in the Lower Cambrian, some 521 million years ago, and lasted until their demise at the end of the Permian, more than 250 million years later. During this vast stretch of planetary history, these adaptable animals filled virtually every available undersea ecological niche, evolving into more than 25,000 scientifically recognized species. In Travels with Trilobites , Andy Secher invites readers to come along in search of the fossilized remains of these ancient arthropods. He explores breathtaking paleontological hot spots around the world--including Alnif, Morocco, on the edge of the Sahara Desert; the Sakha Republic, deep in the Siberian wilderness; and Kangaroo Island, off the coast of South Australia--and offers a behind-the-scenes look at museums, fossil shows, and life on the collectors' circuit. The book features hundreds of photographs of unique specimens drawn from Secher's private collection, showcasing stunning fossil finds that highlight the diversity, complexity, and beauty of trilobites. Entertaining and informative, Travels with Trilobites combines key scientific information about these captivating creatures with wry, colorful observations and inside stories from one of the world's most prolific collectors.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. "Trilobites hold the distinction of being among the world's first dominant forms of complex animal life, arthropods that rank second only to the hallowed dinosaur in terms of their paleontological appeal. These bizarrely beautiful three-lobed creatures initially appeared in the seas more than 520 million years ago, emerging when the oceans had become ripe for the blossoming of biodiversity. These Paleozoic inhabitants would populate the planet's marine ecosystems for the next 270 million years. During that span, trilobites generated more than 25,000 scientifically recognized species - a fact that places these creatures among the most successful animal classes ever to exist on our world. There are a few examples that due to either their unique combination of rarity, beauty, or the noteworthy role they've played in paleontological history, stand head and shoulders (or perhaps we should say glabella and occipital lobe) above all others. From pristine examples of relatively common trilo-types to one-of-a-kind treasures, the book will feature hundreds of high-resolution photographs of an amazing array of the most incredible specimens of trilobites collected from localities around the globe, including specimens that have never before been seen outside of private collections. Travels with Trilobites explains the varying orders of trilobites, locations around the world where their fossils are found and the time periods those fossils can be dated to, and myriad other points of interest: the first trilobites, the uniqueness of trilobite eyes, trilobite eggs, feeding behavior, behind-the-scenes stories from the fossil collecting world, and more".

Hardcover. Condizione: New. For more than 250 million years, the primeval oceans of the Paleozoic teemed with trilobites. These hardy invertebrates evolved into an astonishing array of separate species--more than 25,000 at last count--and much remains unknown about these once-ubiquitous creatures. Fossil enthusiasts are captivated by trilobites' diversity and adaptability, enthralled by the possibility of catching a glimpse of a transcendently strange past. Andy Secher--one of the most prolific trilobite collectors in the world--takes readers on an entertaining and enlightening journey to the distant epoch when these ancient arthropods swarmed through the seas. The Trilobite Collector's Guide presents a series of "Top Ten" lists covering everything from celebrated Cambrian localities and world-class fossil shows to invaluable collecting tips and ways to spot a fake trilobite. These brisk and often witty chapters enumerate trilobites in all their beauty and strangeness, from the most common to the ridiculously rare, the outrageously old to the last in line. The Trilobite Collector's Guide showcases more than 350 full-color photographs, mostly of stunning specimens from Secher's personal collection, that put trilobites' staggering variety and complexity on full display. Engaging and informative, this book lets readers see the world of trilobites as it's never been seen before.
