Treveropyge maura is a very rare trilobite. This specimen shows restorations in several areas, including parts of the cephalon and axial rings, several pygidial spines, and a small portion of the pygidium. Despite these interventions, it remains an interesting and representative example of this elusive species, which is seldom available on the market. The eyes are very well preserved, and the natural brown-beige coloration is particularly attractive. The specimen remains largely natural (restoration about 5%), making it a worthwhile specimen for collectors seeking a rare Treveropyge.
