This is a very nice fossil insect. It is a fine Cricket from the Cretaceous of Brazil. The insect is very well defined and exhibits excellent detail - the head, body, and legs of the cricket are easily seen, and the wings are partially outstretched, which is quite unusual. The dark-brown color of the insect contrasts beautifully with the light-colored matrix. The distinct fossil is well showcased on the somewhat rectangular plate of matrix. This is a great example of a fossil Cricket from the Time of the Dinosaurs!
