Among all animal species, the insect group has the greatest diversity. We know almost a million species of insects. But scientists believe there are somewhere between 2.5 and 10 million species. In other words, we don't even know half of them, perhaps much less. Have you ever thought about finding an unknown insect and having the honor of choosing its name?
