Ole -

It is possible that I might be able to offer you some assistance
with these trilobites, as I myself am trying to correct some ID's
within this group. I would need some more specific questions in
order to be of much help.

I can however, put you in touch with our own national museum and
a handful of people to whom trilobites are a full time interest
or occupation. I don't personally know of any lower Ordovician
trilobite work currently being done, but some of these guys might.
I would also be interesting in knowing where such work might be
getting done.

     Kevin: Sounds like a good topic for your trilobite home page.

Your English seems good, and (for me) it would be far easier to
continue communication in this language.

Somebody forwarded this note to me, and I haven't yet heard of
paleonet, so please copy me on any useful information gleaned by
this effort.

Thanks,

Is there anybody who is working with trilobites (or other groups) from the
Tremadoc-Arenig time interval? In that case I would be interested in coming
into contact with you. I am having some problems with generic division with
the Niobe-group. I am also addressing the problem with international
correlation at this time interval. Any reply would be welcome.
