Amber with cockroach, 5 dipterans and a rare, huge earwig

Amber (Earwig, Dipterans, Cockroach) Age: Pleistocene to Pliocene Size: 60 by 30 mm Location: Foothills of the Andes Mountains, Colombia, South America In handling thousands of pieces of amber, I have rarely seen an earwig, and never one so fine and, at 11 mm, so large. Also uncommon is such a well-preserved cockroach. Throw in five nice dipterans, with attractives bubbles, and you have a unique and impressive specimen of amber with a nice collection of insect inclusions.
