Abstract
Two amber pieces with amphipods were studied. One contained a species placed in the genus Palaeogammarus and a second species belonging to Synurella. The latter has an unsegmented urosome and shortened uropods 3, very similar to the specimen studied by Coleman [2004. Aquatic amphipods (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Crangonyctidae) in three pieces of Baltic amber. Org. Divers. Evol. 4, 119–122; Electronic Supplement at http://www.senckenberg.de/odes/04-03.htm], confirming the occurrence of the genus Synurella in Baltic amber. The systematic position of the amphipod within the second amber piece is unclear. See also Electronic Supplement at: http://www.senckenberg.de/odes/06-05.htm
