Trilobites were a group of prehistoric marine arthropods that first appeared on the fossil record over 500 million years ago and went extinct approximately 250 million years ago. Notably diverse, paleontologists have documented over 22,000 species of trilobites.
Trilobite fossils are exceptionally well-preserved due to their hard exoskeletons, which they molted as they grew in size; meaning, a single living trilobite may leave multiple fossils over the course of their lifetime.
