Did you know we share our planet with over 1 million species of insects? That’s a lot of bugs! Scientists are discovering more insects every day. Insects are also called arthropods. Some have wings, and some don’t. But all have a few things in common.
• Insects don’t have bones or a backbone like us. They’re called invertebrates. That means they have a hard exoskeleton, or shell, on the outside of their bodies that protects them.
• All insects have three parts: the head, the thorax, which is the middle part, and the abdomen, or the end part.
• Insects have two antennae. They also have six legs.
• Spiders are not insects. Spiders have eight legs. They are related to scorpions and belong to the arachnid family.
• All insects hatch from eggs. The babies are called larva.
• All insects go through the same life cycle. Life begins as an egg. The egg hatches and larva emerge. Larvae usually look nothing like an adult insect. The larvae enter a pupa, chrysalis, or cocoon. An adult insect emerges from the pupa.

  • Scientists discover new insect species every day.
  • Insects have got two antennae and six legs.
  • Spiders aren't insects.
  • Baby insects are called dolls or puppets.
