Thanks for the info ill need a few days to check it out but if i find out that there are no ancestors showing soft body trilobites that have a viable ancestory from microbes to proto triliboid im gona bust your balls like there no tomorow. i know its a tough standard but as you say they didnt just poof there, testable science can be a real bitch.

FLY I took your advice and I have to say that is a beautiful collection of Trilobites species, very impressive but I couldnt help but notice one thing, there were no fossils representing the gradual ancestrial representitives that you spoke of why would you lie to me like that I thought you and I were better than that , I feel betrayed! Ive been bamboozzode again! oh the stinging pain.

Benth- this display is a small diorama of the Ordovician fauna .Evolutionary ancestors is not its theme ,which would show Cambrian ones.

[benthemiester]

Im not looking for proof, even im not that stupid just viable evidence.

[flyingscience]

1.Cambrian animals reached a critical threshold of soft to hard shells .Once hard, their shells became easily fossilized .

[flyingscience]

2. The soft bodied trilobites and ancestors did exist , but little was known about them but their foot prints .Finally after decades of looking they where FOUND .

[flyingscience]

3. Benth -one of the best in depth websites on trilobites is called "Guide to the Order of Trilobites " Google that .

[flyingscience]

4.Benth-Google this tittle to see the ancestors of trilobites ."origins of trilobites " or "origins of trilobites Gon lll"
