Dominican fossil amber is known for the clarity of its inclusions including such things as insects, arachnids, and botanicals. This partially polished piece (one side is in the rough as it came from the mine) contains a biting (blood-sucking) midge along with small enhydros. The insect can be seen at arm's length. Enhydros are water bubbles in which an air bubble be seen moving around as the piece is turned.
