Summary:Bradyfallotaspis nicolascagei n. sp. (Fig. 4.1–4.8) Type material. Holotype KUMIP 320701. Paratypes KUMIP 320702-320707 and PWNHC-2009.20.9-2009.20.17 from Nevadella zone, Early Cambrian, Sekwi Formation, Mackenzie Mountains, Northwest Territories, Canada (Section 1, 200– 400 m above base of formation; Section 2 in float; Section 14 in float). There are a total of 16 specimens. Etymology. Named in honor of trilobite enthusiast and Hollywood actor Nicolas Cage. Diagnosis. Anterior cephalic border (sag.) varies between half to equal the length (sag.) of LO; preglabellar area equal to combined length (sag.) of L3 and LA; ocular lobes not in contact with posterior border furrow. Description. Width of cephalon (tr.) is greater than or equal to twice the cephalic length (sag.); anterior cephalic border length (sag.) is narrow, varying between half to equal the length (sag.) of LO; preglabellar field is present with length (sag.) equal to length (sag.) of LO and L1; a pit-like structure is present in most specimens ... : Published as part of Gapp, Wesley, Lieberman, Bruce S., Pope, Michael C. & Dilliard, Kelly A., 2011, New olenelline trilobites from the Northwest Territories, Canada, and the phylogenetic placement of Judomia absita Fritz, 1973, pp. 15-28 in Zootaxa 2918 on page 19, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.202343 ...
