Fallotaspis is a genus of redlichiid trilobites found in Early Cambrian-aged strata of the United States and Morocco.
[3] As with most early trilobites, Fallotaspis has an almost flat exoskeleton, that is only thinly calcified, and has crescent-shaped eye ridges.
As part of the superfamily Fallotaspidoidea Fallotaspis can be distinguished from Olenelloidea, Judomioidea and Nevadioidea by features of the cephalon and in particular the glabella.
The eye ridges (or ocular lobes) contact, but do not merge with, the entire frontal margin of the glabella.
[4] The cephalon of Fallotaspis is semi-circular in shape, with rounded cheeks that are continuous with long spines that go back to the first half of the thorax.
