Found inside of mudstone concretion nodules, these calymene trilobites are common in the south eastern Tazzarine region of Morocco, so much that the local tribes people used to use these mudstones as currency in trade and other daily life. A common mislabeling of these trilobites has been as "Diacalymene".
