This is an unusual insect in Dominican Amber. It is a large Moth (Lepidoptera) from the Dominican Republic. This specimen has great detail - the wings, legs, head, and even antennae are easily seen. The Moth is well centered in the amber piece. There is also a fly trapped in the nugget of amber. This is a very nice example of a fossil Moth in Dominican Amber (close-up photo of Moth is included for free).
