This is a very rare amber fossil. It is a large Harvestman Spider (Araneae) trapped in Baltic Amber. This specimen is similar to the present day ''Daddy Long-Legs'' and is very uncommon from the Eocene. The spider has excellent detail and LONG legs that seem to extend forever. The Harvestman is easily seen preserved within the large, golden amber nugget. This is a very collectible fossil spider entombed in Russian Amber (large close-up photo is included for free).
