What the Hell is Agnostus?!

Agnostus was an odd animal. From what we can tell it had a body similar to that of a small trilobite. But looking closer it also had some traits trilobites don't have. This means that Agnostus is kind of in an agnostic state where it both is and maybe isn't a trilobite.

Maybe there would be fewer questions if they had been named Orthodoxes.

I thought it was a biblically accurate angel

Man, these agnostids were my Masters research--accidentally.
Needed to find one to date the unit I was studying. Found a P. intermedius--and even that was just the pygidium--but it made my day.
We also found echinoids, phosphatic brachiopods (which were already known), etc. But no group became so associated with my masters as the agnostidae.

Without context I thought this was about some Roman philosopher

I may or may not believe in agnostus.

[@eewilson9835]

One day a week we think about Agnostus, Raptor Jeebus, and we do this as a community, its important that everyone show up, or at least send one representative per family.

[@michellecornum5856]

Amen. We're not saying they don't exist, they certainly could have, but it's so much easier to believe when you have some proof.

Lol, I didn't realize what channel this was for until I took a 3rd look.

[@ryanjvideos]

agnostus is the god you worship if you're agnostic

[@thedarkmasterthedarkmaster]

The thing about Agnostids we have basal forms that transitional from more traditional trilobites and the more derived agnostids,
Even if they aren't trilobites they'd be their sister group so it'd be pedantic to distinguish them.
I do hope to eventually do a video series on trilobites

[@trilobite3120]

Just looking at general appearances, there are quite a few other non-trilobite Artipods that more closely resemble the Agnostids, like Soomaspis and Tarricoia. I'm not a professional so this is mostly just a guess, but I'd just like to add it.

[@thedarkmasterthedarkmaster]

@@trilobite3120 The thing with Agnostids is that they are heavily neotenized and the oldest Agnostids are more traditionally trilobite like

I have some 1 mm large Agnosti in a stone, so I have seen them! I have seen the Light, and that is the only thing that matters, trilobites or no trilobites!

bruv i thought agnostus is an ancient deity mythology

Thanks for the upload! What a neat creature they must have been.
Is there any chance that some source/citation/"learn more about this subject" links could be included in the description in the future?

[@whiteegretx]

I'm on the fence as to whether these really exist or not.

Interesting little buggers.

What was the size range for Trilobites (and by extension agnosticus) yes, I saw that Agnos was small.

[@crackerjack3287]

Isotelus rex was skateboard sized they get as small as ur thumbnail

Agnostus are agnostic about Raptor Jebus.
