Archegonus

A proetid trilobite genus spanning the Late Devonian into the Carboniferous, representing one of the longer-persisting trilobite lineages documented in the stratigraphic record.

3 Cyphoproetus

A Devonian proetid trilobite genus characterized by a smooth, inflated glabella, known from multiple paleocontinents and used in biostratigraphic correlation studies.

4 Cyphaspides

A Devonian trilobite genus of the Malvinokaffric faunal province, with specimens recovered from Gondwana regions including South America and southern Africa.

5 Phillipsia
Phillipsia

A Carboniferous proetid trilobite widespread across Europe and North America, one of the few trilobite genera to persist well into the late Paleozoic era.

6 Cyphaspis
Cyphaspis

Cyphaspis is a Devonian trilobite genus notable for pedunculate eyes and spiny ornamentation, described by McCoy in 1849.

7 Basidechenella

A Devonian proetid trilobite of the family Dechenellidae known from North American Devonian deposits, characterized by a smooth, moderately convex exoskeleton.

8 Griffithides

A Carboniferous proetid trilobite known from Mississippian limestones of Europe and North America, found in association with coal-measure-adjacent carbonate facies.

9 Diademaproetus

Devonian proetid trilobite from European and North African strata, noted for prominent tubercles covering the glabella and fixigenae, giving it a distinctively knobbed dorsal surface.

10 Pseudophillipsia

A Permian trilobite from Tethyan marine deposits, Pseudophillipsia is among the last surviving trilobite genera before the end-Permian extinction.

A Devonian proetid trilobite with a long stratigraphic range and wide geographic distribution across Europe and North America, belonging to one of the last surviving trilobite lineages.

13 Weberides
Weberides

A Paleozoic trilobite genus assigned to the order Proetida, known from marine deposits and contributing to the taxonomic understanding of late Paleozoic trilobite diversity.

14 Digonus
Digonus

An Ordovician or Silurian trilobite genus known from European marine strata, characterized by a compact body with a smooth exoskeleton and rounded pygidium.

15 Brachymetopus

A Carboniferous proetid trilobite from Europe and North America, known from Mississippian and Pennsylvanian strata and notable for its compact form and smooth glabella.

16 Dechenella
Dechenella

A Devonian proetid trilobite from Europe named in honor of the German geologist Heinrich von Dechen, known from Middle Devonian carbonate facies of the Rhenish region.

17 Ditomopyge
Ditomopyge

A Carboniferous to Permian trilobite, Ditomopyge is among the last surviving trilobite genera before the end-Permian mass extinction event.

Devonian proetid trilobite widely distributed across Europe and North Africa, recognized by its smoothly inflated glabella and evenly rounded pygidium.

19 Gerastos
Gerastos

Devonian proetid trilobite of the family Proetidae found across Europe and North Africa in shallow marine carbonate environments of the Middle Devonian.

20 Otarion
Otarion

Silurian to Devonian trilobite of the family Otarionidae distributed across Europe and North Africa, known from both shallow and deeper marine carbonate settings.

21 Warburgella

Small Silurian to Devonian proetid trilobite from European localities, notable for its compact, smooth exoskeleton and broad stratigraphic and geographic distribution.

22 Cyrtosymbole

Devonian aulacopleurid trilobite from European marine deposits, found notably in Germany and surrounding regions, characterized by its distinctive pleural form.

23 Zeliszkella

An Ordovician trinucleoid trilobite genus from Europe, particularly Bohemia, characterized by a pitted cephalic fringe typical of the family Trinucleidae.

24 Goldius
Goldius

Devonian trilobite from Europe classified within the Proetida, known from marine deposits of the Middle to Late Devonian across several European localities.

25 Spatulina
Spatulina

A Cambrian trilobite genus characterized by a spatula-shaped pygidium, known from Middle to Late Cambrian deposits in Europe and contributing to faunal diversity studies.

26 Cummingella

A Middle Cambrian trilobite genus of the order Ptychopariida, known from deposits in multiple regions and recognized by its distinctive cranidial and pygidial morphology.
