Hi ya,
Yes, I imagine it probably is just that. If you look at the lozenge shape you can see that it is scored with a median line with what appear to be sweeping brush strokes either side. Those would have been where the legs of the trilobite would have brushed along as it dug a tunnel, the line cleaving the tunnel in two being the centre line of the animal.
Have a look at this for further proof, scroll down the page to halfway and look at the pictures:

Hello KatiE,KatiE~DolphiN said:
Oooohhh, makin' me feel real old, KatiE.
Before U2 was an Irish band I won't hear a word against, it was an infamous spyplane designed and built by Lockheed of California. The Lockheed U-2 was basically a glider with a jet engine buried in the tail, designed to fly high and slow whilst taking pictures of Russia for the CIA. An American U-2 was shot down over Sverdlosk, U.S.S.R in May, 1960, sparking a major diplomatic incident.
Anyhow, there've been rumors of a pterosaur with a truly massive wingspan, so...
Cheers,

A U-2 is also an aircraft that predates the band by a couple decades.

Please find herewith pics of said spyplane and some terrific shots from its cockpit at 30 Km's + up, talk about a view...
technically it's a TR-1, but it's still a U2 to me
And now
