Tyrannosaurus RexMember5639 XPJan-28-2017 1:26 AMHello there.
While having a little peek around the web, I happened upon this bit of information that made me think of you, here on SCIFIED! I certainly hope you enjoy this information! :)
SpinosaurusMember10416 XPJan-28-2017 1:50 AMNot so sure about Alien lol
Insects have been around for Many Millions of years, many are extinct the insect in that amber looks like it may be closely related to a degree to the Protodiplatyidae/Eodermaptera Family.
May be a new order/species related though..
Therefore similar to Earwig.. especially Nymph stage

Tyrannosaurus RexMember5639 XPJan-28-2017 2:43 PMBIG DAVE - Indeed! I happen to think this little fellow somewhat resembles a Praying Mantis to some degree! However, you are quite correct: this "alien" insect does share similarities with a wingless stonefly! :)
CompsognathusMember35 XPJan-29-2017 1:48 PMI done a bit of research and apparently it looked so alien it was given its own scientific order called Aethiocarenodea!
