Category:Insects

The largest class of all arthropods, and all animals as well, insects are an immensly versatile group of animals that are united by three pairs of legs, a head with a pair of antennae and complex mouthparts, a thorax, an abdomen, and with a few exeptions - typically two pairs of wings. With this malleable body structure, insects have adapted to almost any niche and dominate all terrestrial environments (they have yet to conquer the oceans).
