product description
This beautifully illustrated volume provides an overview of the insect
world. The introduction looks at insect anatomy, life cycles, social
organization, feeding techniques, flying and the benefits of insects to
humans. The majority of the book is an encyclopedia of insects organized
geographically and by insect order. Identification details are provided for
each variety, such as body hue and segmentation, shape and size, and the
habitat where each can be found and the time of year. Differences between
male and female species are included, as well as changes in appearance at
each life stage. This rich visual record is accompanied by over 750
stunning illustrations.
