1. Small piece, but perfect in every way. The amber is very clear and easy to see the millipede, which is close to the middle. Good price on this one.

SOLD
2. This piece is over an inch in length and has a wonderful millipede in it - one of the nicest I've seen. Very clear amber and just a rare and great specimen. There is also a female worker ant near the millipede. The legs of the millipede have an unusual pattern on them, take a look.

SOLD
3. A rather interesting piece with a nice millipede and what looks like small fuzzy twigs. Good price on this one.

$239
4. This is quite the piece. There is a complete centipede and a lot more. Looks like a fungus gnat was caught in the act of laying eggs (unusual.) There is at least one fly with some fungus gnat on it's back and one beetle. This is a very nice piece with quality inclusions.

SOLD
5. This is just a beautiful piece of small amber with a perfect millipede. Take a look at the pictures, you will agree.

SOLD
6. Nice cab with a fairly good sized beetle larvae - looks like a rove beetle larvae to me, but then most of the larvae look the same.
Scanned Image
$81
SOLD
7. This one I am not sure about. While it does appear to have segmentation similar to larvae, it also looks like it has pincers in the abdomen - I do not think it is a mayfly and I suspect it is not a larva, I just do not know. The amber is very large, roundish and very clear. This is a very nice specimen! Scanned Image
$49
SOLD
8. 2 very nice larva - one small and the other larger. This piece has everything in it. A very nice gnat (looks like, but is not, a mosquito - fungus gnat). It even has the remnants of a silverfish. Here is a preverbal beetle! Scanned Image
$75
9. Interesting piece of amber. Good sized with two large wasps, Hymenoptera. Off to one side is what looks like a larva that is twisted at a 90 degree angle. It almost looks juicy! Small but very nice larva.

$49
10. A very small but perfect piece with a nice larva of a beetle - looks like a mealy bug larvae to me (I am sure it is not)! You can't go wrong on this one. Scanned Image!
$89
SOLD
11. There is not just one millipede here, but a total of 5! The amber is just slightly irregular in shape and contains some great looking millipedes. There is some organic debris here - all in all, just a lovely piece to look at.
$135
SOLD
12. What a beaut! He just looks great. This is a very nice Diplopoda, a millipede. Scanned Image
$154
SOLD
13. Every once in a while you run across specimens that just have "the spark". This one does. There are 4 beetle larvae swimming in a sea of crystal bubbles The amber is clear and the bubbles have a crispness that is seldom seen (really). I wish I could tell what type of beetle larvae they are, but I just cannot. You will enjoy looking at these pictures. Scanned Image!
$156
SOLD
14. Centipedes are NOT common in amber, much less Dominican amber. But here is a beauty. The antennae are very thick on this guy. There are a few amber glazing surface cracks on the side away from the centipede. This is a rare piece, at a GREAT price. You just do not see these very often. The piece is loaded with other life (mainly Dipterans) Scanned Image!
$45
SOLD
15. Wow, here is a millipede (large one at that) that is sliced off at both ends and what you have is the middle of the guy. He is large with fairly good sized legs. His loss is definitely your gain! He happens to be sitting on an adult planthopper, Homoptera, Fulgoroidea (you can't see it well, but I can see the distinctive wings.)
Scanned Image
$89
16. This is a very small (15 mm in length) millipede. This one though has too many legs! I cannot ID it. Possibly this is a new genus of millipede - for anyone out there knowing their archaic millipedes. This one might be named by you (I would love to have my name in the species.............If so, I will refund your money) Scanned Image
$1,435
17. Millipede: Order Polyxenida, Class Diplopoda, Polyxenidae! This specimen is as nice as they get. Perfectly clear yellow amber and easy to see. You can see each segment along with the hairs. This specimen is priced very well! This is a magnificent piece of amber with the specimen easily seen. It is believed to be the 2nd ever known and photographed. Scanned Image!
$985
18. Possibly a larvae of an unknown insect. The amber is tear drop shape, flattish on one side and perfectly clear throughout. Superb specimen. The larvae is curled. Scanned Image
$69
SOLD
19. Another unknown larvae. Nice shape to the specimen. There are also 2 other flies in this amber. Scanned Image
$130
SOLD
20. This is a large hunk of amber. It weighs 17.6 grams (that is a lot for amber, which is very light.) The larvae is small but easily seen. There is a small air bubble near it which blocks the view if observed from that side. An ant and a large fly are off to the side. Scanned Image!
$78
SOLD
21. Small piece of perfectly clear yellow amber that has a very nice larvae. This is the type of specimen that one takes out of their top drawer to show friends, that special piece. Scanned Image
$81
22. Long and large piece with a very small larvae. There is also a fly and other debris that was on the forest floor. Interesting. Scanned Image
$1,135

23. This is the third one!
Millipede: Order Polyxenida, Class Diplopoda, Polyxenidae! This specimen is also as nice as they get. Very clear yellow amber and also easy to see. You can see each segment along with the hairs. It is believed to be the 3rd ever known and photographed. I realize that it is hard to believe the both of them are right here, but it is true! There is a leaflet to boot. On the under side of this leaflet, it appears that there is some sort of 'scale' on it - at least that it was it looks like. Scanned Image!

$88
24. Super clear yellow amber with 1 small beetle larvae and 2 gnats (Diptera). The larvae and gnats (one male and one female) are along an 'amber plane' right near the middle. The amber plane was made by a second resin flow over the animals. There is also a small fly, Diptera on the other side. This is a very nice piece. Take a look at the scan -- Scanned Image
$135

25. This is a beautiful millipede. The amber is a wonderfully clear yellow and the millipede is visible near one side. This really is s superb piece.
Scanned Image!

$143
SOLD

26. Large piece of amber with lines through out the piece. The is a large curled millipede in this piece. Also included is a small wasp and some type of fly. The millipede is on the side and does not scan well. It is a good millipede though! the antennae are rather thick and large on this guy.
Scanned Image

$85
SOLD

27. Here is a millipede that appears to have "walked" through a spider web (trailing behind it). At the anterior portion is either another part of a spider web or a fungal attachment. I am not sure on this. It is cool looking though! There is also a mite off to the side!
Scanned Image!

$53

28. Almost square piece of amber that is cloudy on one side. There is a nice millipede and contains about 3/4 of the body. Very interesting segmentation to it! On the cloudy side is what looks like 2 fractions of other millipedes.
