FLOWER-CRICKET
Age: 45 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Baltic States, Jantarny, Russia
Flower crickets are brightly colored and rounded, with large heads, short wings, and long anten-
nas. They are around 2 centimeters (0.8 in) in length and in the daytime they hide in the holes that
they have dug. Only the males produce sounds, to attract the females, by rubbing their wings
against each other. In the amber shown, you can see a flower cricket, which has been preserved
without degradation for 45 million years.
When we examine the recent examples of this insect, we see that they carry the same features since
the day they were created. To put it another way, they never evolved.
