Erbenochile
Erbenochile is a genus of spinose phacopid trilobite, of the family Acastidae, found in Lower to Middle Devonian age rocks from Algeria and Morocco. Originally described from an isolated pygidium (the posterior body part or shield), the first complete articulated specimen of E. erbeni revealed the presence of extraordinarily tall eyes: "Straight-sided towers of lenses... with [up to] 18 lenses in a vertical file" — Fortey & Chatterton (2003) "a detail of life habit which had previously been equivocal: Eyeshades are no use in the dark." — Fortey & Chatterton (2003)
