As you go through these pages, if there is any type of specimen you do not see but are interested in, please feel free to contact us, we have a rather large inventory. I suspect we can fill your needs, even if you are in need of a particular beetle family or another specific request- we have it!

New species of Planthopper discovered.

We specialize in International orders!

A very good book has been released in November 2009 about Baltic amber.

All specimens on this page are from the Dominican Republic and about 24 million years old.

Description of the Specimen

 

$89

amber #1. An interesting piece of amber........... spherical, under .5 inches containing about 12 spheres of water - well at least they are spheres with what appears to be air bubbles. These are "en-hydros" and very unique and rather hard to find. This one is even more appropriate that the entire piece of amber is spherical. Here is a fun little (90 megs) video of the bubbles.

$83
SOLD

 

2. Good sized piece of Dominican amber with 2 winged termites and 2 beetles, one of which is a bark gnawing beetle, Coleoptera, Ostomatidae.

Scanned Image!
$65

3. Elongated cab shape piece of amber with a large male, winged ant, Hymenoptera, Formicidae. This guy has a nice shape to him. Scanned Image!

 

$162

#4 Earwigs always remind me of an episode of Twilight Zone that I saw many years ago.......this is an earwig, Dermatoptera. Earwigs have an elongate body with pincers at the rear. They are extremely rare in amber, which is surprising considering they are commonly found in the cracks in the bark of trees today.
Scanned Image.

$146
SOLD

 

#5 You are going to love this piece. There is a bubble within a bubble. Assuming it is water (en hydro) - this is the water than has been trapped for many, many millions of years. Just think about what things that might be in the water - a deadly virus, bacteria? What would happen if it became exposed to the atmosphere.............would life as we know it, stop? Just stuff to think about. Enjoy the video - the video is large, 128 megs.
Scanned Image.

$2,950

#6. We have to put this on the first page. This is the finest lacewing we have ever seen. Impressive, magnificent, out of this world are some of the descriptors. In fact there are 2 lacewings, one of which is beyond museum quality. This is one heck of a piece. You will not find wings like this on any other lacewing (Order Neuroptera.) You will have a fun time looking at the images and then the scanned image.

$299

7. There is a zoo here. Possibly 12 to 15 fungus gnats, Diptera, Mycetophilidae, midges, female ant, Hymenoptera, Formicidae and finally to cap this place off is a bristletail, Thysanura. The bristletails are very rare in Dominican amber. The amber is large and very impressive. There is a strange 2 hairs or legs from a large bug - cannot tell.
Scanned Image!
$93
#8 There is a lot here. Looks like a root (doubtful), a springtail, immature planthopper, couple female ants, Hymenoptera, Formicidae, a sprig from a Bryophyte (plant) and just more - even a small spider and a small beetle. A lot of fun to look at under a microscope.
Scanned Image!
$243

#9. Do we have a piece for you. Here is a very large raoch. While roach's are not rare, they are not common. But this guy is a monster. So easy to see - you will be the envy of everyone on your block. This is an exceptional piece of amber with a wonderful roach in it. They do not get any better.
Scanned Image!

$145

10. Woodlice (Isopoda) inhabit marine, freshwater and terrestrial habitats. These Isopods, Oniscidae, prefer moderately moist and dry biotopes under bark, rocks and leaf litter. This is a particularly fine specimen, in a large piece of Baltic amber.

This has its own page.

$149
SOLD
11. For everyone who likes flowers, this is it. There are 4 or 5 flowers here along with bits of leaves and much more. This is sure to keep you looking since every time I do, I find something different. This is a sharp piece with a great shape. What a pendant this would make.
Scanned Image!
$45
SOLD
#12 Large piece with some sides not polished. This contains a good size spider and at least 1 fungus gnat. There is a lot of organic debris which I suspect is hiding many smaller animals.
Scanned Image
$139
13. Here is another rare one, a weevil, Coleoptera, Superfamily Curculionoidea. The weevil looks a bit unusual for a weevil. The amber is large and clear, just a great piece. Needless to say, this is a type of beetle that feeds on plants maybe even in your cereal! There is a barklouse (Psocoptera) and 2 gnats along with numerous other very small insects. Here are some more.
Scanned Image!
$178

16. Hang on to your hats for this description. This is a female earwig, Dermaptera. Earwigs are rare in amber, and even rarer to see the complicated wing venation (which you can just see.) Even with this rare animal, there is a rare mite. Quite the piece. I think there was a Twilight Zone movie about earwigs................
Scanned Image!

$92
#15. Small piece of amber, this contains an Isopod. Isopods have 7 pairs of legs, corresponding to the last seven thoracic segments. Isopods. Together with shrimps, crabs, lobsters and water fleas, are crustaceans. This Isopod is in the family Pseudarmadillidae.
Scanned Image!
$76
16. Nice piece that contains 3 female worker ants (all sterile), Hymenoptera, Formicidae. It also contains what appears to be 2 segments from a caterpillar (no guarantee on this ID though).
Scanned Image!
$133
SOLD
17. Cab shape to this amber. It is clear with that 3-D look to the inside. Very unusual. There is a rare isopod, Sphaeroniscidae. Isopods have 7 pairs of legs corresponding to the last seven thoracic segments. They dwell in damp environments such as river banks, or beaches, or tree stumps and humus. Scanned Image!
$158

18. One lone beetle awash in a sea of yellow. This has a Bark Beetle, Coleoptera, family Scolytidae. As I commented earlier the scolytid beetles are still found on the few Hymenaea(algarrobo) trees here in the Dominican Republic, under the bark and in the seed pods. Off to the side is a very pretty Chalcidid wasp, Hymenoptera family Chalcididae. This piece is flat on one side and teardrop shape for the rest.
Scanned Image!

$118

19. There is a very large immature planthopper in the chunk. These are insects that undergo incomplete metamorphosis and are in the Order Homoptera, family Fulgoroidea. They have distinctive ridges running down the front of the head and a few spines on their legs. At first glance it almost looks like a beetle because it is so large. There are a bunch of flies also in this honey.
Scanned Image!

$99
SOLD
#20. A particularly nice segment of an amber tube. Clear, smooth and just plain cool. It has a lot inside. Noteworthy is the one large animal - a cricket? At first this is what I thought, but on second look, I am am not sure.
Scanned Image!
$38
SOLD

21.Nice sized piece. This contains a bunch of wasps that all died together. One end of the piece has a chip from it, thus the lesser price.
Scanned Image!

$96
SOLD

22. Big piece of Dominican amber. This has an immature planthopper, Hemiptera, Fulgoroidea, a gall gnat, Diptera: Cecidomyiidae and a true bug, Hemiptera. I cannot ID the true bug any further.
Scanned Image!

$42
SOLD
#23. I like this piece. It is a small cab shaped piece of Dominican amber that contains some organic debris and a single stamen from a flower - it is just cool.
Scanned Image!
$84

#24. Good sized piece that contains a single (and fairly large) planthopper, Homoptera, Fulgoridea. No idea what type - but cool. Also nice female worker ant off to the side.
Scanned Image!

$237
25. Centipede, Class Chilopodia. This is one of those very rare centipedes. Millipedes are more common in amber, but centipedes are very rare. Here is one half a centipede. The amber is not large, but the animal is great. As you can see, it is very beautiful.
Scanned Image!
$79

26. There is a mite sitting on top of what looks like part of a petiole. This is a fun piece, you cannot go wrong with mites. This is even pretty good sized (as far as mites go.)
Scanned Image!

$288
ant27. This is a wonderful piece of amber. It is large and clear - so clear, you can read through it. But the real thing about this is that it has personality. You are drawn to look at it - very special. It has a large worker termite with two decomposition bubbles coming from the abdomen. This is really sharp. Along with that is a number of wood fragments that permeate all parts of the piece. This would make a great pendant - you would not be able to keep your eyes from it.
Scanned Image!
$215
SOLD
28. Flies, and gnats and wasps, oh my! This large piece has it all. Just about any gnat or fly you want, it is in here. Very busy inside, you will always see something new. This weighs 62 grams and would be a nice addition of anyone's collection. It is about 3 x 1 x 1.5 inches.
Scanned Image!

29. A very nice roach in this piece of amber. There is some good detail to see - Orthoptera, Blatteridae. Very interesting.

In the I Dig Bugs Amber Fossil Excavation by Action Products kit you can dig out a genuine insect preserved in simulated amber. Sometimes small plants or animals are found trapped inside the amber and are perfectly preserved, just as in this I Dig Bugs: Amber Fossil Excavation Kit by Action Products. Included is a realistic sand block, steel tools, glasses, full color facts poster and necklace string for the option to wear the amber nugget. Intended for ages 8 and up.

$32.25

They are made by a Russian firm (yes, they have instructions in Russian also if you understand Russian!) They are made in Belarus, a former state of the USSR. The factory was originally set up for making high quality optics for military use. They even made high resolution satellite cameras, so you can expect high quality standards from them. The construction is excellent, being made of glass, metal and screws. This is not a cheap plastic loupe.

$8.75

We have been looking for a good jewelry's loupe that will not break the bank. This is it. Well built, good optics and something that everyone can afford. Our main goal with this loupe was that it would be a triplet loupe, have good optics and would not break the next day. Finally we wanted a loupe that you could give to a kid (or use yourself) and then not have to cry when the child lost the loupe. This just fits the bill every way around. You will love it. This is a 10X loupe (even though it does say 20X). It has all the power you will ever need.
This has it's own page also.

We are very pleased to bring you some of the most unique and finest eating utensils anywhere. We have amber chop sticks done by the famous artist Dorota Kos. I was lucky enough to meet her at the 2007 AMBERIF conference in Poland. I saw the chop sticks and feel in love with them. She recently finished a few for us and we proudly offer them to you. By the way we watched her as she accepted 2007 "AMBERIF DESIGN AWARD" with her creation called "Natural Mystic".

We have the largest selection of amber books on the market. No one comes close to offering what we have. Take a look, you will be thrilled at what you see. Some of the books are offered at Amberica West and nowhere else. Here is a place to start.
