Trilobite fossils can be found in various locations across the United States. Here are three notable locations:
- Uinta Mountains, Utah: The Wheeler Shale formation in the Uinta Mountains is known for preserving well-detailed trilobite fossils.
- Wheeler Amphitheater, Nevada: This area in the Great Basin is famous for its Cambrian trilobite fossils, particularly in the Wheeler and Marjum formations.
- Ordovician and Silurian outcrops in New York: Some areas in upstate New York, such as the Mohawk Valley and the Rochester Shale, have yielded trilobite fossils from the Ordovician and Silurian periods.
