This Dominican large amber with tick and swarm inclusion preserves a fossil tick along with numerous small insects encased in Miocene Dominican amber, with visible body structures that allow direct observation of their morphology. The large size of the amber enhances visibility of the multiple inclusions. Such specimens are significant because they document both parasitic arthropods and broader insect diversity within tropical forest ecosystems of the Caribbean during the Miocene period.
