This Dominican amber with grasshopper inclusion preserves a fossil grasshopper encased in Cretaceous Dominican amber, with visible body structure and leg morphology that allow direct observation of its anatomy. Grasshopper inclusions are significant because they document early herbivorous insects and provide insight into plant–insect interactions within Cretaceous forest ecosystems.
