Abstract

A unique articulated exoskeleton of the phillipsinellid trilobite Spinibole (Spinibole) olgae Chlupáč, 1966 was discovered in the vicinity of Březina village in the Moravian Karst. Newly discovered locality is very important because of preservation of articulated exoskeletons of trilobites that show evidence of calm environs and preservation in situ without submarine streams.
