Late Devonian (Frasnian) Asteropygine trilobites from the Frasnes area, southern border of Dinant synclinorium, Belgium

The Frasnian representatives of Asteropyginae in the Frasnes area (south Belgium) have long been relatively well-documented when compared to other trilobites in the Devonian of the Ardennes (Belgium, northern France).
