If you’re in New York and like amber, take in the American Museum of
Natural History’s new exhibition. Centred around a replica of an ancient
forest in the Dominican Republlc, the curators have created a showcase for the
collection of amber and the fossil life it contains. From tiny springtails to
stingless bees, insects dominate fauna trapped in sap, but a treefrog is also
visible as a black shadow in the gold. Until September 1996.
