SEX!!! In the fossil record that is. Not only is it quite astounding to preserve life as a fossil, it is mesmerizing to preserve an action like this. These 2 insects were literally caught during copulation and have been preserved mating. It is as close to observational biology as you can hope to get out of the rock record.

Isn't the real news that a scientist spent ten years of his life looking for this specifically? I can see all sorts of abuse potential here: the bumpin' uglies bug biologist, the fornicating(fucking ...) fossil finder, the paleo- porn purveyor, etc. Smile
