Olenellus is an extinct genus of redlichiid trilobites, with species of average size (about 5 centimetres or 2.0 inches long). It lived during the Botomian and Toyonian stages (Olenellus-zone), , in what is currently North-America, part of the palaeocontinent Laurentia. [4] Life reconstruction of Olenellus thompsoni
Although intra-species trilobite diversity seems to have peaked during the Cambrian, [30] trilobites were still active participants in the Ordovician radiation event, with a new fauna taking over from the old Cambrian one. [31] Phacopida and Trinucleioidea are characteristic forms, highly differentiated and diverse, most with uncertain ...

Triarthrus is an average size trilobite (up to about 5 centimetres or 2.0 inches) and its moderately convex body is about twice as long as wide (excluding spines). Like in all Olenidae, the headshield (or cephalon ) of Triarthrus has opisthoparian sutures , and the right and left free cheeks that they define are yoked.
Encrinurus is a long-lived genus of phacopid trilobites that lived in what are now Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America from the middle Ordovician to the early Devonian from 472 to 412.3 mya, existing for approximately
Lonchodomas is a genus of trilobites, that lived during the Ordovician. It was eyeless, like all raphiophorids, and had a long straight sword-like frontal spine, that gradually transforms into the relatively long glabella. Both the glabellar spine and the backward directed genal spines are subquadrate in section.

Paradoxides is a characteristic Middle-Cambrian trilobite of the 'Atlantic' (Avalonian) fauna. Avalonian rocks were deposited near a small continent called Avalonia in the Paleozoic Iapetus Ocean . Avalonian beds are now in a narrow strip along the East Coast of North America, and in Europe.
