Perforated tubercles have been observed in some (...) [trilobites]. They are plainly visible in silicified specimens, and it is evident that they are an original feature and not due to a particular state of preservation. The perforations are located either at the tip of the tubercle or slightly behind it. Seemingly they represent passageways for tactile setae. However we cannot altogether discard the possibility that some of these perforations represent the external opening of cutaneous or subcutaneous glands.  1, fiche 1, Anglais, - perforated%20tubercle
