FIGURE 3 in Continuous character variation within the Glossopleura-Anoria-Sonoraspis plexus: Dolichometopid trilobites from the Cadiz Formation (Cambrian: Miaolingian, Wuliuan), California

FIGURE 3. Relative eye position and length for dolichometopids in this study, by taxon and formation group (most traditional Glossopleura species blended). This version of the data shows the intermixing of Glossopleura and traditional Anoria and Sonorapis. Note that within taxa, eye position may vary greatly. Only eye length shows possible distinction between genera. Anoria tontoensis from the Bright Angel Formation (along with one specimen of A. bessus from the Gordon Shale) is smaller-eyed and separates from Glossopleura (including G. mckeei) but only at an arbitrary EL/GL of 0.380. A. lodensis, G. mohavensis, and S. californica all plot within Glossopleura.
