Amber Listserv / inclusion laying eggs

[TheZerbe4 at aol.com]

Hi all,
    I would say that Dale is correct that those are  eggs because of the 
shape and number.  Sometimes when an insect gets  engulfed in resin, it has enough 
time to release most of its eggs, usually more  than one or two, and I would 
say by the looks of the photograph that this fungus  gnat had enough time to 
release at least 10 eggs before dying...maybe more  outside the photo 
dimensions.  NICE FIND...THATS A KEEPER!
