They became extinct before dinosaurs conquered the Earth and are now index fossils for the Paleozoic Era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrilobites were among the first arthropods, a phylum of hard-shelled creatures with segmented bodies and many coordinated legs (which, along with the animals' antennae, unfortunately, are almost never preserved as fossils due to their composition). They form the extinct class Trilobita, consisting of nine currently recognized orders - over 150 families, over 5,000 genera, and more than 15,000 described species. New species are found and identified every year. Their diversity makes trilobites the most divergent group among all extinct organisms.
