Since last autumn, I collect in Belgium, in the western part of the Ardennes. There, I
found several complete trilobites at different places. I am still working on them , so
first of all her is a list of the trilobites I found.I am not sure on the names, because
there is not that much literature on that part of the Ardennes. If there is anybody, who
has better information, please contact me.
