Trilobite
Koneprusia
Spiny odontopleurid
Koneprusia is a small odontopleurid with a forest of long, branching spines, prepared free-standing from the Devonian limestones near Alnif and Jorf. Genuine specimens require days of air-abrasion and cost accordingly; the spines are frequently rebuilt or replaced, so ask for a restoration percentage and UV images. The original Koneprusia was described from Koněprusy in the Czech Republic.
