Wild: Like most Trilobites, Trilobite Conchadurus is an opportunistic carnivore  that feeds on anything smaller than itself which it can get a hold of. A sluggish creature, the Trilobite's best defense is its incredibly hard shell. This seems to be a common adaption for the slower creatures of the island.

Domesticated: The Trilobite does not seem to have enough intelligence to be tamed. This doesn't mean it doesn't have its uses among resourceful survivors, though. Trilobites are easily one of the best sources of high quality chitin  on the island, assuming one doesn't wish to venture into the dangerous caves.

Known Information: Trilobite is not a very good source of food. The creature seems to be made mostly out of internal organs and its defensive Carapace. This is good for the Trilobite, as both river and ocean predators are less likely to prey on it if there are better options around.

Behavior

Trilobites can be found in shallow water in small groups, and occasionally on beaches. Trilobites do not fight back when hit, which makes them an easy source of chitin (oil and silica are no longer an easy resource to obtain through this method due to the nerf given to the trilobite in Patch 193.0). When a Trilobite is attacked, nearby Trilobites will attempt to flee.

Appearance

A trilobite is a strange arthropod closely related to horseshoe crabs. It has a small, flattened body divided into three segments from front to tail; head, thorax and pygidium. It crawls about on many tiny legs, snuffling the sand for tasty treats. Capable of breathing both air and water, its chitinous exoskeleton protects it from predators.

Color Scheme and Regions

The Trilobite always spawns with the same color scheme and has no color regions.

This means it is currently impossible to make alterations to the Trilobite's natural spawn colors.


I do not own ARK: Survival Evolved or the dossiers.

So they cover 17000 species and over 270 million years with just a single creature?
