- MothMoth belong to the order Lepidoptera, which also includes butterflies. Moths are distinguished by their dark or dull-patterned wings. The group is paraphyletic with regard to butterflies (suborder Rhopalocera), and neither subordinate taxon is used in current classifications. Previously, they were classed as suborder Heterocera. The great majority of the order consists of moths. Moths… Read more: Moth
- CicadaCicada have membranous front wings, short antennae, and prominent eyes spaced widely apart. In most species, their drum-like tymbals quickly buckle and unbuckle to generate an incredibly loud song. Current species of Cicadomorpha can be found worldwide in moderate to tropical regions; the earliest known fossils date back to the Upper Permian. Usually found in… Read more: Cicada
- AphidsAphids are tiny insects that feed on sap and belong to the Hemipteran order’s Aphididae family. Although individuals within a species can differ greatly in color, common names include “greenfly” and “blackfly.” The fluffy white woolly aphids are part of the group.

- BelostomaBelostoma, also referred to as huge water bugs, is a genus of insects belonging to the hemipteran family Belostomatidae. This genus’s members are indigenous to freshwater environments throughout the Americas, with tropical South America having the highest species richness.Although Belostoma is still a genus with a large number of members, the majority of species in… Read more: Belostoma
- Nepa (Water Scorpion)The genus Nepa is a member of the Nepidae family, which includes water scorpions. In the Northern Hemisphere, species can be found in freshwater environments. They are aquatic insects with oval bodies and raptorial front legs. They are easily distinguished from the Belostomatidae by having two nonretractable cerci-like breathing tubes on the terminal abdominal segment,… Read more: Nepa (Water Scorpion)
- DragonFlyA dragonfly is a flying insect that is a member of the Anisoptera infraorder, which is subordinate to the Odonata order. There are currently about 3,000 species of dragonflies. There are fewer species in temperate climates, and the majority are tropical. Dragonfly populations worldwide are under risk due to the loss of wetland habitat. Adult… Read more: DragonFly
- Ephimera (Mayfly)Mayflies are aquatic insects that belong to the order Ephemeroptera. They are also known as shadflies or fishflies in Canada and up-winged flies, up-wing flies, or drake-flies in the UK. This genus belongs to the ephimera, an ancient group of insects that also includes damselflies and dragonflies. There are more than 3,000 recognized species of… Read more: Ephimera (Mayfly)
- TermitesA class of eusocial insects known as termites eats a wide range of decomposing plant matter, usually in the form of wood, leaf litter, and soil humus. They have been referred to as “white ants” because of their soft-bodied, unpigmented worker caste and beaded (moniliform) antennae, but they are actually highly derived cockroaches rather than… Read more: Termites
- Forficula (Earwig)The genus Forficula belongs to the family of earwigs. Carl Linnaeus, a Swedish biologist, initially defined Forficulidae in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae in 1758. Earwigs, once tiny pinchers, are known by the Latin name Forficula. The genus is native to Afro-Eurasia, mainly Europe, and is found on every continent except Antarctica. Forficula auricularia is the… Read more: Forficula (Earwig)
- Mantis religiosa (Praying Mantis)The largest family of the order Mantodea (mantises) is the Mantidae family, which includes the European mantis (Mantis religiosa), a huge hemimetabolic insect. The term “praying mantis” comes from the characteristic position of the mantis’s first pair of legs, which resembles a position of prayer when it is in repose.
