Insects are the most diverse and numerous group of living creatures on our planet. They belong to the class of insects (Insecta) and include millions of species, from tiny beetles to giant butterflies. Insects play a crucial role in ecosystems and fulfil a variety of important functions. Many insect species are pollinators and play an essential role in pollinating plants, contributing to the production of fruits and seeds. Others are decomposers and help break down dead organic material and maintain nutrient cycling. Insects are also an important food source for many other animals, including birds, fish and mammals. They form the basis of many food chains and help maintain ecological balance. |
