Bouleia
''Bouleia'' is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida (family Calmoniidae) which existed during the lower Devonian in what is now Bolivia. It was described by Kozlowski in 1923, and the type species is ''B. dagincourti'', which was originally described under the genus '' Phacops'' by Ulrich in 1892. It also contains the species ''B. sphaericeps'', originally described by Kozlowski, also in 1923, as ''Dereimsia sphaericeps''. The type locality was the Icla Formation in Padilla. Taxonomy ''Bouleia'' belongs to a group of primarily South-American species that developed from the genus '' Metacryphaeus''. It is most related to '' Parabouleia'', and these two genera together are the sistergroup of a clade containing '' Vogesina'', '' Palpebrops'' and '' Malvinella''.

Morocconites
''Morocconites malladoides'' is an average size (about ) trilobite, which lived during the Devonian period, in what is now southern Morocco. This species is assumed to be a close relative of '' Acastoides''. The most conspicuous feature is the very long upcurved frontal medial spine, a bit like an avocet bill. It is the only known species in this genus (i.e. the genus is monotypic). Description The general outline of ''Morocconites'' is a bar about twice as long as wide, with approximately parallel sides and rounded front and back ends. The horizontal outline of the cephalon (or head) is pentangular, with a long, upcurved, frontal medial spine. At the axis, the cephalon takes up about 30% of the total body length. The horizontal outline of the raised part of the cephalon is approximately parabolic. The central area of the cephalon, separated from the eye area by a lateral furrow, is called the glabella. Posteriorly, a left to right furrow singles off the occipital ring. This ...
