I've been "patiently" working on a piece of Baltic amber by hand (no power tools), trying to get a good view of an inclusion I found. I still have to work the opposite side down more (about 2.5 mm or so) to get a decent view from the other side, but I'm hoping these views will suffice for now. The first 3 pics are with using my Dino-Lite at 100, 150 & 200x, the 4th pic is a screenshot at 200x using the measurement tool. It's really tiny. No real idea what it might be, but it almost looks like some sort of embryo, especially with the lower ball shaped part, but I could be wrong. Most of the piece is littered with bits of debris, some of which can be seen in the pics. But this bit is different from the rest as you can see. Looking forward to idea's.

Serious, experienced replies, please! This 0.5 cm long object is attached to a broken coprolite from the Eocene/Oligocene of NW Nebraska. Trying hard to figure it out. Wrong twexture for a tooth and it doesn't look like a seed, either. I have a guess, but right now a guess is all I have. Any coprolite specialists out there? I know the pictures could be better, but I don't have a microscope out here in the field.

What is this inclusion in this amber? It appears to be some sort of head, but I don’t know what it is

Hello all, I would like to add Amber to my fossil collection but i am lost online due to all the concern about fake Amber. Could anyone recommend a reputable site or person to purchase from? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I have this piece of chalcedony that I polished years ago in a tumbler. I always thought inclusions were automatically mineral or geologic but a recent thread said that is not always the case so I am wondering if any of these inclusions are biologic, thanks for your help. Oh and there is also an air bubble (last photo) not sure if that means anything

Need some ID help on this one. Eocene, Keasey Formation, and an inclusion or something inside a concretion. Size of the whole piece is 12 x 15 cm, weighs about 6 pounds. Image 1 - Mollusk on top of something that has included into the matrix #2 is a close up of the mollusk and surrounding area Closeup of the inclusion material More images to follow.

Hey! I blindly bought a bunch of rough Dominican amber and found this thing dead center in a large piece. The main blob has bubbles in it so I thought it might just be a pocket full of air, but after looking at the microscope and seeing appendages I'm not so sure. Is this just a fluke or actually something? These are the best photos I could take – any ideas?

[ Baltic Amber Inclusion ] Extremely Rare Aquatic Nymph Of Veliidae SMALLER WATER STRIDER
vermiculosis posted a topic in Micro-paleontology
Dear Friends, I decided to share more from my passion, good finds or interesting things if we talk about Baltic Amber with inclusions. This is still fascinating for me and there is always chance for something extra or new for science. This time it is something that i found first time ever and i don't have it in any book about amber inclusions. Its a Extremely Rare, Aquatic Nymph Of Veliidae - SMALLER WATER STRIDER. Why so rare ? Well in general aquatic organism's are always very rare becouse they was in water or near water so its very simple. Its easy to imagine that it would be hard to trap insects (by resin) under water. What is interesting, there is also in that amber a huge rove beetle ( Coleoptera: Staphylinidae ), spider and botanical mess. So that is fascinating how aquatic nymph was trapped together with not water "insects". This buddy got only 1mm so i am happy that i didn't miss him. I will add photos of syninclusions in comments. Enjoy! Artur -
Hello, I've been intrigued by this for days, and I am wondering if it is a fossil or not? Found in Northamptonshire, UK, which is mostly Jurassic in age. I've found Bivalves, belemnites and some gastropods in the same area. Sorry there's no scale, its about 5mm. Thanks.
