I've been stung a couple of times, ya it hurts but not a big deal really, the pic's that people have sent have no reference so its tough to tell the size of them but they look small compared to the size I usually see, a big one in the jungle is bigger than the palm (no fingers) of a large mans hand.
I bought one once from a local guy that was an inclusion in a piece of Copaul, Copaul is South American Amber and is about 2 million years old compared to 10 million year old Baltic Amber, I paid 40 bucks for the piece and a friend sold it at a gem show for 5K about 6 months later.
I see them all the time, they make a great sound when you step on them.
