2.3mm Fossil Beetle & Three Small Flies In Baltic Amber
This is a nicely detailed 44 million year old fossil beetle (order Coleoptera) with a cluster of tiny flies preserved in Baltic amber. The beetle is about 2.3mm long and the flies are about 1mm
As a reminder, most inclusions in Baltic amber are extremely small so magnification will be needed to make out much detail. A physical photo of the specimen is included with your order and we will also email you a high resolution digital copy.

Please note: The market is flooded with fake amber, which is often plastics with insects embedded in it. The insect inclusions in amber are almost always tiny. Larger insects are able to struggle free and are not preserved. If you see something that looks too good to be true, it often is. Make sure to buy from a reputable dealer.
