What is an insect? Broadly speaking, invertebrates are animals without a backbone and include multi-legged, hard-bodied minibeasts, known as arthropods, as well as corals, slugs and snails, worms and soft-bodied sea creatures. Arthropods can then be separated into groups including crustaceans (such as crabs and woodlice), spiders and insects. Happily, insects share a number of characteristics to help you separate them from the crowd: Six legs Three body sections (head, thorax and abdomen) Pair of antennae Exoskeleton Compound eyes Most have wings Three or four stage life cycle (egg, larva or nymphs, pupa and adult) Insects come in a number of groups, or 'orders', not all of which have representatives here in the UK. Let's explore nine of the more frequently encountered minibeast types and some of their more well-known members.
