Insect, belonging to the phylum arthopoda is a tiny six-legged invertebrate animal. They have achieved phenomenal success in both the terms of species richness and abundance. Around 66% of all species now recognised are insects which makes up more than 75% of the world's biodiversity today. As we treat insects as potential pests, their ecological significance is frequently overlooked. But they have various roles in nature including ecosystem cycling, biocontrol agent, pollination, decomposition. In many countries insects are used as human food which contributes significantly to the consumption of animal proteins. Here we will discuss about various functions done by insects in nature.
