The Western Pacific Railroad was a Class I railroad in the United States. It was formed in 1903 as an attempt to break the near-monopoly the Southern Pacific Railroad had on rail service into northern California. WP's Feather River Route directly competed with SP's portion of the Overland Route for rail traffic between Salt Lake City/Ogden, Utah, and Oakland, California, for nearly 80 years. The Western Pacific was one of the original operators of the California Zephyr passenger line.
Harry Blackmore Whittington FRS was a British palaeontologist who made a major contribution to the study of fossils of the Burgess Shale and other Cambrian fauna. His works are largely responsible for the concept of Cambrian explosion, whereby modern animal body plans are explained to originate during a short span of geological period. With initial work on trilobites, his discoveries revealed that these arthropods were the most diversified of all invertebrates during the Cambrian Period. He was responsible for setting the standard for naming and describing the delicate fossils preserved in Konservat-Lagerstätten.
Karl Anton Eugen Prantl, also known as Carl Anton Eugen Prantl, was a German botanist.

Bornholmaspis is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, which existed in what is now Bornholm, Denmark. It was described by Přibyl and Vaněk in 1983, and the type species is Bornholmaspis inflatus, which was originally described as Pseudosphaerexochus inflatus, and later as Pateraspis inflatus by Poulsen in 1965.
Eccoptochiloides is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, that existed during the upper Ordovician in what is now the Czech Republic. It was described by Prantl and Pribyl in 1947, and the type species is Eccoptochiloides tumescens, which was originally described under the genus Cheirurus by Barrande in 1852. The type locality was the Vinice Formation.

Daniel Přibyl is a Czech former professional ice hockey forward, who played with HC Sparta Praha in the Czech Extraliga (ELH).
Raymondaspis is a genus of trilobites in the family Styginidae. It was described by Pribyl in 1949, and contains the species R. reticulatus and R. turgidus from the Whiterockian of Canada, R. vespertina from the Ordovician and Whiterockian of the United States and Norway, and a new species, R. grandigena, which existed during the Middle Ordovician of what is now Sweden. R. grandigena was described in 2012 by Martin Stein and Jan Bergström.
Přibyl is a Czech surname. It may refer to:
Inge Sylten was a young Jewish girl from Czechoslovakia who was deported in a transport from Theresienstadt Ghetto to Estonia in September 1942. Heinz Drosihn was an SS-Unterscharführer and the commandant of Ereda concentration camp in Estonia. Their paths intersect in the camp, where they fell in love, were forced to flee, and subsequently were shot or committed suicide during their flight to Scandinavia. Their story was preserved mainly thanks to fellow inmates of Inge Sylten. The Czech filmmaker and researcher Lukáš Přibyl called their story "... Romeo and Juliet story in a concentration camp".
Orphanaspis is a poorly known genus of odontopleurid trilobite in the family Odontopleuridae. The genus is originally based on poorly preserved material from the Wenlock-aged Motol Formation in Bohemia, Czech Republic, described by Joachim Barrande, in 1852, as "Trilobites orphana." In 1945, Prantl and Pribyl reclassify T. orphana as Orphanaspis orphana. Some experts suspect that O. orphana may actually be a species of Dicranurus.
Monograptidae is an extinct family of graptolites of the order Graptoloidea. Monograptids have only one row of thecae per stipe, unlike the biserial graptolites which have two opposing rows of thecae per stipe.
Tropidocoryphidae is an extinct family of trilobites in the order Proetida.
Dimorphograptidae is an extinct family of graptolites.
Lubomír Přibyl is a Czech painter and printmaker.
Dudleyaspis is an extinct genus of Lower to Middle Devonian odontopleurid trilobites that lived in a shallow sea that lay between Euramerica and Gondwana. It was named in 1949 by Prantl & Pribyl.
