Remarks

From Wilson (2014, p. 204): “Generally resembling Viaphacops cristatus … but marked by the absence of genal and axial spines, and the simple annulations of the pygidium. Formerly known as Phacops rana, this is perhaps the most common trilobite in the Middle Devonian Hamilton Group.” Maximum size 100 mm.
