INSECTS

INSECTS: General close-up and interesting Macro photographs of but a few of the roughly 50, 000 insect species of Southern Africa. Three quarters of all living species on earth are insects. Most insects are about two millimeters in length and are therfore somewhat inconspicuous. To ignore insects, no matter how large or how small they may be, would be unwise, since no terrestial ecosystem will be able to function without them. Keep a lookout on this site for some interesting patterns, colours, and designs that appear on the various insects in the environment that surrounds us. CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE
