Beschreibung:

Indeterminate Species Oligocene La Toca Mines, Dominican Republic Reptiles in amber are rare and scientifically important. Amber experts speculate that this specimen may be a newly discovered species based on its unusual leg morphology. Displaying the reptile’s belly and front legs, a crystal clear yellow amber nugget showcases a sensationally well-preserved right front leg and impeccably well preserved claws and scales. Offered in a Riker mount. Nugget measures 1 ¼ x 1in; Belly measures 1/2in; legs each measure 1/8in
