Fossil Insects in Amber

Fossil Insects in Amber is a research topic within Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics. Science Explorer counts 9.9k research works in it since 1950. 10.0% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers explores the evolutionary history of insects, particularly focusing on the phylogenetics and molecular dating of various insect orders, the discovery and analysis of amber fossils from different geological periods, and the implications of these findings on understanding the diversity and biogeography of ancient insect species. The research also delves into the taphonomy, morphological adaptations, and ecological interactions of ancient insects preserved in amber.
