    Description

    Offered is arare cluster of finely preserved and complete dorsal sclerites of the rarely seen Macheridian (Armoured Worm)
    Plumulites
    sp., from the Lower Ordovician, Llanvirn Series (Dariwillian) of Baoshan, Yunnan Province, China.
    Three overlapping 1.5cm sclerites are cleanly exposed, and more are in evidence; the matrix requires preparation to reveal more examples, but this is an easy task with modern air tools. Matrix approx. 9cm X 7.5cm X 4cm.
    Macheridians  are derived from annelid stock, and the overlapping sclerites were dorsally attached to afford protection from predators.
    Affordable price for such a rare fossil in sharp preservation; one for the serious collector.
