The job of the pivot table is to summarize your source data table based on the criteria you specify in the filter fields (Report Filter, Column Labels, and Row Labels). You can think of it as a very advanced way to arrange and filter your data.
The Limulidae are the only recent family of the order Xiphosura, and contain all four living species of horseshoe crabs: 1  Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda, the mangrove horseshoe crab, found in Southeast Asia. 2  Limulus polyphemus, the Atlantic horseshoe crab, found along the American Atlantic coast and in the Gulf of Mexico.
The horseshoe crab is one of the oldest living species. Fossils of horseshoe crabs have been dated at 360 million years old. They evolved in the shallow seas of the Paleozoic Era (540-248 million years ago) with other primitive arthropods called trilobites, a long extinct close relative of the horseshoe crab.
