Description
This book explores a group of animals that first appeared on land more than 400 million years ago-insects.

From butterflies and moths to dragonflies and grasshoppers, from beetles and bees to ants and earwigs, hundreds of individual specimens are profiled in incredible detail, each accompanied by clear, concise text and key data.
