Amber with inclusions in magnifier box

A classified insect (e.g. beetle, spider, ant, mosquito, fly), enclosed in amber from the Eocene of the Baltic (approx. 50 million years old). Packed in a magnifying lid box - a real surprise package!Amber is fossilized tree resin. As each tree species produces different resins, each amber locality is different. The origin of Baltic amber is still a mystery, as even the large sites in Kaliningrad are relocations.Make sure that your amber is not exposed to the sun, as this can degrade the material over time.Age: EoceneLocality: Baltic StatesSize: approx. 1.5 cm in magnifying lid box The colors in the pictures may differ slightly from the original due to technical reasons.All our pictures serve as examples.

Balteurypterus tetragonophtalmus, Silurian; UKR

Age: Silurian, Bagovitsa Fm.;Finding region: Smotrych River, Kamjanez-Podilskyj, UkraineSize of head: 2 cmSize of matrix: 6 x 6 x 1 cmEurypterids, also called sea scorpions for their pointy telson, evolved in the Ordovician. They were the apex predators of the upper Ordovician, Silurian and lower Devonian seas, and reached their largest biodiversity during this time. The largest representatives of this order could reach up to 3 meters, while Balteurypterus tetragonophtalmus only was a few modest centimeters long. The Suborder of Eurypterina, to which Eurypterus of course belongs, modified their last pair of legs into swimming paddles. They had two respiratory systems - book gills and Kiemenplatten - and trace fossils indicate that they could go on land. They never fully transitioned, however, probably because like their relatives the horseshoe crabs they chewed with the bases of their legs outside of their mouth, which would have been more efficient underwater than on land. In the seas, fish started outcompeting them, which drove the remaining species into the rivers. In the Permian there were only a few species left, among them the heaviest arthropods to ever exist. During the Permo-Triassic extinction the last members of this group went extinct.The colors on the pictures may differ slightly from the original due to technical reasons.

Diptera, Cretaceous, Yixian; CHN

Exceptionally well-preserved diptera, rich in detail so that the insect is clearly recognizable.A world-famous fossil deposit from the Cretaceous period, known as the Yixian formation, is located in the Chinese province of Liaoning. This site is characterized by exceptionally well-preserved remains of various organisms such as birds, small dinosaurs, reptiles, fish and plant remains, as well as insects.Particularly noteworthy is the excellent preservation of prehistoric insects, making this formation a mecca for paleontologists.What is more, the exceptional state of preservation of the fossils can be traced back to a catastrophic event: A massive volcanic eruption covered vast areas of land with ash. Volcanic ash preserved the fauna and flora of the time in remarkable detail, creating a unique window into Cretaceous life.Age: Lower Cretaceous, Barême, Jehol Group, Yixian formation;Locality: Liaoning Province, Manchuria, ChinaSize: approx. 6.0 x 4.0 x 0.5 cmColors on product photos may differ from those of the original specimen due to technical reasons.

Duslia insignis, Ordovician; MAR

Extremely rare!Currently: Arachnomorpha, order Cheloniellida Duslia insignis was first identified in 1893 on the basis of specimens from the upper Ordovician of the Letná Formation in the Prague Basin in Bohemia. Originally they were classified as polyplacophorous molluscs, but later this species was recognized as an arthropod and assigned to the burlingid trilobites. In the late 1980s, Chlupác considered Duslia to be a representative of the chelonielids, which are located between the "trilobitomorphs" and the chelicerates. Further studies argued for a phylogenetic link to the chelicerates (cf. Van Roy, 2006). Over the years, several hundred specimens have been offered for sale, mainly from the Djebel Tijarfaïouine in the El Caïd Rami region of Morocco. These specimens show only minor compaction or deformation and are fully articulated. The original cuticula has been replaced by a thick mineralization that ranges in color from pink to reddish-brown. The digestive tract is often visible, as in this case.The positive and negative impression of this specimen have been preserved. It is unaltered, no color enhancement or retouching!Age: Upper Ordovician, Sandbian;Locality: Bou Nemrou, El Caïd Rami, MoroccoSize fossil: 10 x 7 cm; matrix: approx. 17 x 15 x 4 cmColors in product photos may differ from those of the original specimen for technical reasons.

Eusthenopteron foordi, Devonian; CAN

Rare! Piece of a fin. Known site for these fossils.Eusthenopteron is an extinct genus of Sarcopterygii, commonly referred to as lobe-finned fish, that lived in North America and Europe during the Upper Devonian. These fish are considered important ancestors of the tetrapods, the first land-living vertebrates, as they exhibit features that illustrate the transition from aquatic to terrestrial life. These include the structure of their fins, which developed into limbs. The anatomy of Eusthenopteron already shows some tetrapod-like features, particularly in the composition of the humerus (upper arm bone), which indicates the later development of the limbs. These fish may have used their powerful fins to prop themselves up in shallow waters, similar to push-ups, which is interpreted as a step towards land walking. Despite these adaptations, they remained restricted in their ability to move and were mainly bound to aquatic life.Age: Devonian, Fransnian;Locality: Scaumenac Bay, near the city of New Brunswick, province of Quebec, CanadaSize of matrix: approx. 5 x 7 x 0.5 cmColors on product photos may differ from those of the original specimen due to technical reasons.

Two Ellipsocephalus hoffi, Cambrian, Jince

Beautifully preserved trilobites with distinct segmentation.Site in Czech Republic not accessible anymore!Age: CambrianLocality: Jince, Czech RepublicSize: Trilobite about 2,5 - 3 cm, on matrix: 5 x 12 x 1 cmThis species lacked eyes and therefore lived in unlit conditions, probably deeper zones of the sea. It also performed something called "double enrollment": to protect itself it did not roll-up like some isopods do nowadays with head and end coming together. Instead it tucked its micropygidium under its thorax and covered it with its giants cephalon.The colors of the original may differ slightly from those of the product photos due to technical reasons.
