Burmese amber is fossil resin dating to the early Late CretaceousCenomanian age recovered from deposits in the Hukawng Valley of northern Myanmar. It is known for being one of the most diverse Cretaceous age amber paleobiotas, containing rich arthropodfossils, along with uncommon vertebrate fossils and even rare marine inclusions. A mostly complete list of all taxa described up to the end of 2023 can be found in Ross (2024).[1]

A tick combining a body resembling that of a soft tick with a basis capitulum more like that of a hard tick, assigned to a new family Khimairidae as a possible transitional form between soft and hard ticks.
13 Specimens of Squamate, varying from largely complete specimens to isolated limbs that were assigned to various families, one of which was later determined to be an albanerpetontid.
