Cambropachycopidae
Extinct family of Cambrian arthropods / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cambropachycopidae is a family of Cambrian pancrustaceans from the Orsten of Sweden, united by their singular, large compound eye and heavily enlarged cephalic segment. Both species were roughly a milimeter long with similar body structures, however Goticaris is distinguished by two stalked blisters near its eye, as well as a longer body and smaller eye than Cambropachycope.[1]
