What happens to the natural world if all the insects disappear?
(PHYSorg.com Biology)
 


There are an awful lot of insects. It`s hard to say exactly how many because 80% haven`t yet been described by taxonomists, but there are probably about 5.5m species. Put that number together with other kinds of animals with exoskeletons and jointed legs, known collectively as arthropods - this includes mites, spiders and woodlice - and there are probably about 7m species in all.
