Trilobites Every single continent has yielded trilobite remains. The biggest species (Isotelus rex) was some 28 inches long, while the smallest measured less than a millimeter from end to end. Some sported defensive spines, while others had smooth, rounded shells. And whereas certain trilobites came with disproportionately large eyes, many deep-sea species were blind. Their debut roughly coincided with the dawn of the Cambrian period. During this game-changing chapter in Earths history, multi-celled organisms went through an apparent explosion in diversity, or at least an explosion in life forms that leave fossils. New creaturesincluding a barrage of mollusks and arthropodsseem to have evolved at an unprecedented rate. The Cambrian also saw trilobites become the most common and diverse animals on the planet. However, trilobites began to decline when the period ended some 500 million years ago. Though the invertebrates stuck around for another 240 million years, theyd never again be so successful.
