Inclusions

The majority of amber inclusions are insects and arachnids. In recent years, advances in technology have allowed researchers to extract DNA from amber inclusions. This has led to the discovery of new species and has provided insights into the genetic makeup of ancient organisms. The study of ancient DNA from amber inclusions has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of evolution and the history of life on Earth.

Larger fragments of plants, such as twigs, leaves or flowers, are also a rarity being much more fragile.
