One notable extinct arthropod from the Paleozoic era is the trilobite. These marine creatures were diverse and abundant, with a wide range of sizes and forms, thriving in the oceans from the Cambrian to the Permian periods. Trilobites are characterized by their three-lobed body structure and are often used as index fossils for dating and correlating the age of rock layers. Their extinction occurred around 252 million years ago during the Permian-Triassic extinction event.

Extinct marine molluscs with coiled partitioned shells?
Ammonites and nautiloids are extinct marine mollusks with coiled partitioned shells. Ammonites were abundant during the Mesozoic era, while nautiloids have survived to the present day with only a few species remaining. These shells are characterized by their chambers, which were used for buoyancy control and housing the soft body parts of the organisms.

What things are extinct and start with a p?
Several extinct species that start with the letter "P" include the Passenger Pigeon, which was once abundant in North America but was driven to extinction by hunting and habitat loss. Another example is the Pleistocene Megatherium, a giant ground sloth that roamed South America during the last Ice Age. Additionally, the Pyrenean Ibex, a subspecies of the Iberian ibex, was declared extinct in the early 2000s due to hunting and habitat destruction.
