Orthoptera Nymph & Spider in Burmite Amber | ui-g-23-25

$550.00 $386.00

Description

The centerpiece of this inclusion is a beautifully preserved juvenile insect from the order Orthoptera. It displays several distinct morphological features characteristic of cricket-like lineages

This exceptional specimen of Burmite Amber offers a window into a mid-Cretaceous forest floor from approximately 99 million years ago. It features a remarkable “life scene” composed of multiple well-preserved inclusions, centered around a significant Orthopteran nymph.

This piece is a “multi-inclusion” specimen, meaning it trapped an entire micro-community at once. This adds significant display and educational value.

  • Arachnid (Spider): Located near the edge of the amber, a small spider is preserved in a strike-like pose. It provides a fascinating look at the predatory pressure these Orthopterans faced.
