"Something in the insect seems to be alien to the habits, morals, and psychology of this world, as if it had come from some other planet: more monstrous, more energetic, more insensate, more atrocious, more infernal than our own."

— Maurice Maeterlinck ( 1862- 1949)

Insects are invertebrate animals of the class Insecta, the largest and (on land) most widely distributed grouping within the Phylum Arthropoda. The study of insects is called entomology.
