Description

Oligocene
Florissant Shale
Florissant, Colorado, USA
16mm insect on 85mm slab from the famous Florissant Fossil Beds.

Insect. Arthropod.

Looks like some kind of elongated beetle. Detailed, you can see the body segments of the little guy. If you showed it to an entomologist, he might be be able to ID from what’s there since many modern insects were present by the Oligocene.
