Trilobite research
- Bicknell et al.

- A study on the injured specimens of Redlichia takooensis and Redlichia rex from the Cambrian Emu Bay Shale (Australia) is published by Bicknell et al. (2022), who argue that R. rex was likely the chief producer of the injuries in the studied specimen and of large shelly coprolites in the Emu Bay Shale biota, and represents one of the earliest cannibalistic trilobites.[38]
