Olenellus is one of the oldest trilobite genera in the fossil record.  It lived only during the Early Cambrian but is known from various localities across North America.  It had a rather flat body relative to later trilobites.

Here’s an affordable specimen for the casual collector who wants a sample of one of the more ancient fossils.
