There are over 1 million identified species of insects and spiders (Arthropods) in the world today with many more still awaiting categorization and discovery. As ancient as time itself, insects offer up an mostly forgone and often times misunderstood existence in our ecosystem. In short, without their being here among us, we surely would not exist in the way that we do!

InsectIdentification.org tries to provide a casual understanding about common North American insects - most notably those found in the continental United States of America - and tries to put some knowledge out there for you, our special guest, to absorb.
