Detailed Fossil Ant, Flies, Spider, and Larva in Baltic Amber
This is a detailed, 44 million year old piece of polished Baltic amber that contains a well preserved fossil ant (family Formicidae), several flies (order Diptera), a spider (order Araneae), and a larva. The larva was not been captured in one of the images. The ant is about 4mm wide.
As a reminder, most inclusions in baltic amber are extremely small so magnification will be needed to make out much detail. Included with your order is a physical photo of the specimen, and we will also email you high resolution digital copies.

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.
