Fossil Cricket

This is a very well-known type of insect trapped in amber. It is a very nice Cricket from the Dominican Republic. This specimen is extremely detailed - the long, segmented antennae are intact, and the LONG hind legs are beautifully showcased. Even the spikes on the tail have the bristles preserved! The cricket is easily seen in the cognac-colored piece of amber. This is a wonderfully preserved example of a fossilized cricket from the Dominican Republic (two small close-up photos are included for free).
