This striking Cretaceous Burmese amber specimen contains a near-complete fossil scorpion in Burmite, notable for preserving portions of the metasoma (tail)—one of the rarest and most sought-after anatomical regions in fossil scorpions. Even incomplete scorpions that exhibit any preserved tail elements are considerably more valuable, as they provide significant taxonomic and morphological information about early scorpion lineages.
This piece is most of course assuredly a collector-grade specimen, ideal for enthusiasts of amber paleobiology, scorpion specialists, and buyer who is seeking rare inclusions without the premium pricing of fully articulated individuals.
