Description of the Specimen
$82
#55 What a beautiful example of a single worker termite, Isoptera floating in a sea of yellow fossilized resin. 24 million years ago this termite was chomp'in wood, now it is there for us to admire.
Scanned Image!
$47
#56 This is a tough animal to see because of the debris or air bubbles inside. It looks like a very special wasp, the elongation between the head and the abdomen is very long. Someone will really enjoy this one.
Scanned Image!
$53
#57 There is something special about an old fly, Diptera, Brachycera (really) in amber. This cab shape piece of Dominican amber has a great fly near the middle.
Scanned Image!
$55
#58 A lovely piece of very clear piece of amber that contains 4 or 5 worker ants (female), Hymenoptera, Formicidae. It looks like some animal came through and took a bite out of each one.
Scanned Image!
$19
#59 Very small piece of Dominican amber that contains an immature planthopper, Homoptera, superfamily Fulgoroidea. The amber is cab shape and clear.
Scanned Image!
$85
#60 A face only a mother could love..............this ancient female worker ant was probably a leaf cutter ant, Hymenoptera, Formicidae. She is curled near the center, impressive. There is also a wasp, Hymenoptera off to the side of the ant. You could make this into a pendant and still see the ant.
The ant is interesting, mottled areas of darkness (probably carbon films) and you can see where they have pulled away, rather like drying on mud flats.
Scanned Image!
$199

#61 Very clear piece of Dominican Republic amber with a wasp closer to one side. "He" is curled. The price on this one is good.
Scanned Image!
$55
#62 This tends to be a flatter piece. It has 2 nice winged termites (male) and an unusual set of wings. I can almost make out squares on the wings, but am not 100% sure enough for a declaration.
Scanned Image!
$639
#63 Amber will drip from trees in a stalactite fashion. Here is one big section of an amber stalactite. Beautifully clear inside and rough on the outside. You do not see them like this very often. This will be a crown in someone's collection.
Scanned Image!
$89
SOLD
#64 There is a jumping spider, Aranidae, Salticidae, that will not be jumping any more. The piece has scattered coprolites around and is very clear. Just a fun piece to look at. Hard to go wrong with such a great piece of Dominican amber.
Scanned Image!
$29
#65 Good clear piece of Dominican amber with a single, curled leaflet. Kind'a cool - you will like this one.
Scanned Image!
$49
#66 A nice cab piece of Dominican amber with a single worker termite. The amber is not large, but the termite is perfect. A great example at a very good price.
Scanned Image!
$51
#67 This piece of amber has 4 nice tropical stingless bees, Hymenoptera, Melipodidae, genus Proplebeia, species, dominica.
Scanned Image!
$35

 

 

#68 This has a nice little wasp, Hymenoptera near one each of the amber. What I like are the bubbles all over the amber, they are really sharp.
Scanned Image!
$154
#69 This is it. One of special pieces that does not come along very often. This has an unknown Hemipteran (true bug) - I really do not know what it is (if you know, let me also!). But biggest of all is the square headed ant, Hymenoptera, Formicidae, Genus Cephalotes. These ants guard the nests with their heads, allowing only the 'proper' ants in to the colony, probably looking for particular pheromones. This is on of the finest in the collection. You will be amazed at the detail of the head and body.
Scanned Image!
$498
#70 This is a very large piece of amber with 5 click beetles, Coleoptera, Elateridae and one unknown beetle. If you are into beetles, this is a great one to cap off any collection! This will be one of those 'I've got to have it' pieces. There is even an unknown beetle in this grouping. Scanned Image!
$59
#71 A future pendant in the making. This clear piece of amber contains 2 wasps, Hymenoptera, they are dark and easy to see. Just one of those 'good' pieces of amber.
Scanned Image!
$39
#72 Poetic justice on this one. It contain a fungus gnat, Diptera, Mycetophilidae that has a fungus all around it! Very interesting - two kingdoms here - Animalia and Fungi.
Scanned Image!
$99
#73 Long piece with a smallish cricket and a flower beetle, Coleoptera. Nice pictures - great price.
Scanned Image!
$37
#74 Even though this is a small piece of amber, it is way cool. It has a single thorn. Reminds me of the story of the little boy and the lion. There is also a female ant, Hymenoptera, Formicidae.
Scanned Image!
$62
#75 Reasonably good size piece of amber with a lot inside. There are legs from a crane fly scattered all throughout the piece. The legless crane fly body is there also. At one end is part of a plant - don't know which part though. Many 24 million year old air bubbles. Just a good piece to look at.
Scanned Image!
$29
#76 A small piece of amber with a bushy vegetation piece. We do not know if it is a seed or part of a plant. It is neat though.
Scanned Image!
$59

#77 Flat piece with some material that reminds me of a leaf (not a leaf though.) The biggie with this is that there is a mite off on one side. Really cool, you just do not see these very often. And this piece is priced to sell.
Scanned Image!

$26

#78 Interesting piece of amber with a single worker termite, Isoptera.
Scanned Image!

$38
#79 Smallish piece of amber with a lot of organic debris (good stuff...). There is a single millipede near the middle, Diplopoda.
Scanned Image!
$83
SOLD
#80 I love this one. The caddis fly, Trichoptera, is large and makes up most of the piece of amber. You will love this one also when you look at the scanned image. Just a great piece.
Scanned Image!
$73
#81 Darkish piece with a red tinge to it. This piece is good sized and contains 4 crane flies, Tuplidae. They are not in perfect shape, some having a ring of fungus around them. But I must admit, I have never seen 4 crane flies together in amber. Of course there are gnats and a fly or two.
Scanned Image!
$49
#82 Nice female worker ant, Hymenoptera, Formicidae. This piece also has a fly, Diptera, Brachycera. The amber reminds me of a clear rock. You will like this piece.
Scanned Image!
$47
#83 You will find two great animals here. One is a caddis fly, Trichoptera and the other is an adult planthopper, Homoptera, Fulgoridea. Good price on this one.

Scanned Image!

$54
#84 Nice sized piece with a small fly , Coleoptera, Cucujiidae. A rather sharp piece - particularly for the money.
Scanned Image!
$36
#85 Cab shape amber with a cylindrical bark beetle, Coleoptera, Colydidae. The amber must be viewed from the side to see the beetle.
Scanned Image!
$31
#86 This is a small piece of amber. It contains 2 beetles, a leaf beetle, Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae and an ambrosia beetle, Coleoptera, Platypodidae.
Scanned Image!
$44
#87 Many ancient air bubbles surround this 24 million year old millipede, family Siphonophoridae. Interesting piece.
Scanned Image
$139
SOLD
#88 Like number 62 above, this is coprolite. Coprolites are really fossilized poop. Believe it or not, they are rare and seldom found - think about it, they can degrade so quickly, since this is material that does not normally contain parts that leave imprints for fossilization. This is probably snail poop. The surface has a glazing, but the actual coprolite is embedded deeper in the piece. This is a rare specimen. There is a poor quality cricket on the other side.
Scanned Image!
$47
#89 You want spiders? We've got spiders. This is a male spider just next to what may be (?) a worker ant. The amber is very clear and looks great.
Scanned Image!
$12
SOLD
#90 Clear piece with the faint image of winged termite, Isoptera. Nice piece for a collection.
Scanned Image!
$91
#91 You will love this piece of amber. There are at least 5 female worker ants, Hymenoptera, Formicidae, all sterile plus an unknown beetle, Coleoptera.
Scanned Image!
$83
#92. If you know what an Isopod is, you will want this piece. This, clear with a very nice Isopod. There is also a very small beetle larvae.
Scanned Image!
$199
#93 A very large piece of Dominican amber. The edges are not polished (adds class) and all the other sides are polished. This has an amazing 5 tropical stingless bees in it. The classification of the bees: Hymenoptera, Melipodidae, genus Proplebeia, species, dominica. A very nice piece - you do not see them like this often.
Scanned Image!
$32
#94 Just a sharp fly, Diptera, Brachycera. It looks like the fly is flying out of the amber. You will like this.
Scanned Image!
$121
#95 Great cab shape to this - future pendant. There is a single worker termite on one side and the other has what looks like a leaf petiole. This is a beautiful piece - and easily made into an impressive pendant.
Scanned Image!
$19
#96 Small leaf and termite, Isoptera, are in this small piece of amber. The leaf is easier to see than the termite.
Scanned Image!
$58
#97 A very busy piece of Dominican amber. There is a nice looking millipede. You can see all the legs and both anterior and posterior ends.
Scanned Image!
$51
#98 Here is a very clear piece of amber. You could read a book through it. It does contain 2 worker termites among some scat, scattered around. It is a good piece at an unbelievable price (good sized piece).
Scanned Image!
$14
SOLD

#99 Clear as they get - this has what looks like a headless beetle. Either that or it is an unknown species.
Scanned Image!

$39
#100 One or two worker termites, Isoptera, along with 1/2 body of a tropical stingless bee and 1 fly. Good clearity and color - great price.

Scanned Image!

$17
#101 Not 100% sure, but I think this is a wingless termite. Interesting animal.
Scanned Image!
$39
#102 Good looking worker termite at one end and a gnat at the other. There is some surface glazing on this piece (thus the price....) Enjoy.
Scanned Image!
$172
#103 This is a very hard piece to describe. It is good sized, clear with literally a zoo inside. I could run a list of animals inside, but there are way to many to list. If you can think of it, it is there, flies, gnats. Midges, wasps, ants, spider, just about anything you want.
Scanned Image!
$33
#104 This is a barklouse, Pocoptera, possibly in the family Caeciliidae (although I am not 100% certain on that). Nice set of wings and a clear piece of amber.
